Q&A
Why is it harder for the students to continue with this no talking contest at home?
Because most parents don’t like succinct answers.
What does Brian have to do that day after school?
He has to get a haircut.
And what happens to Brian because he can’t talk?
He ends up with a terrible haircut.
Back at school, the principal, Mrs Hiatt, is having a meeting with all the fifth graders’ teachers and asking them about this no talking contest. How do the teachers respond?
Well, Mrs Marlow, the science teacher, doesn’t like it because she thinks it’s a bother, a distraction. Mrs Escobar, the math teacher, agrees. The music teacher also doesn’t like it because she can’t teach the kids songs if they don’t sing.
What about the language arts teacher, Mr Burton?
He still supports the contest because these fifth graders have been driving the whole school crazy by talking non-stop, so he doesn’t understand why the principal wants them to start talking again now that they want to be quiet for two days.
What happens the next morning?
The principal calls a special fifth-grade assembly.
What does Mrs Hiatt do to force them to talk?
She asks Dave and Lynsey to lead the Pledge of Allegiance.
How do Dave and Lynsey respond to the situation?
The entire fifth graders speak with one voice.
What order does Mrs Hiatt make?
She orders them to stop playing the no talking game.
Did they stop?
No. Lynsey continues the game during the math class, and then Dave joins in.
Why does the science teacher, Mrs Marlow, also decides to allow the students to keep playing the game?
Because it doesn’t make sense to force the kids to be noisy again.
What about the music class?
The students reach an agreement, and they decide that singing is not talking. So everyone sings in music class.
What games does Mr. Burton have the students play this time?
He asks them to do a debate by only using three words.
