I think kids would like history much more if teachers said these things:
"Okay kids, I hope you remembered to bring in cardboard, because we're making suits of armor, shields, and swords, and then having a medieval battle outside to help us learn about medieval times!"
"Today we're learning about perimeter and area. Open up Minecraft so we can use the cubic blocks as a visual aid."
"Let's see who can design and build a structure that we can put this egg in, drop out the window, See More and that will prevent the egg from cracking when it hits the ground! You have: tape, string, balloons, paper plates, index cards, and, of course, this egg. Ready, set, go!"

Whenever I talk to my (atheist) dad about astrology, he says stuff like, "Maggie, don't say that god is silly if you believe in all this stuff that's just as silly."
Well, I don't agree with him. First of all, there's been proof that god doesn't exist (comment on this or PM me if you want to debate), and so far, astrology hasn't really been disproved. Second of all, Pythagoras (the guy who came up with the Pythagorean Theorem) came up with numerology - a type of astrology based See More on numbers. Basically, numerology says that numbers can reveal a person's personality. Third of all, it has some scientific basis. For example, astrology is all about how the movements of the planets and constellations can affect your personality, and studies have shown that people born at different times of the year are born with different amounts of radiation in their bodies. That radiation might affect the way their brains work. Fourth of all, a research team conducted a survey on what star signs are most likely to have certain jobs. Then, they asked an astrology expert what star signs are most likely to have certain jobs, without showing the expert the survey results. The expert's answer matched the results of the survey!

CorneliusHackl added a new chapter to The Mysterious School
The Roof: MYSTERY #2
I pulled on my white t-shirt with the peace sign on it, headed out into the hallway, and climbed the stairs to the roof. As always, the worn lawn chair sat in the middle of it. I lowered myself into the chair, grabbed my old copy of Moby Dick from under it, and started to read. The roof was my relaxing spot. Calm and serene, not to mention abandoned - no one else ever came up here.
Suddenly, a gust of wind billowed in from out of nowhere. It blew Moby Dick from my hands, sending it skittering... Read Full Chapter

CorneliusHackl added a new chapter to The Cliques
Chapter 2
Ali was walking through the hallways, trying to get to Social Studies, when she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around, and to her horror, it was Wanda Pelletier!
"Hello!" Wanda exclaimed, giving a toothy grin. "I heard you're in my clique. Awesome!" She grabbed Ali's hand and squeezed it. "Come on. I have Social Studies now, too! We can sit together!"
Ali mentally gagged. "Er.. okay.." she muttered, hesitantly continuing to walk.
Wanda kept chattering. "I had a weird dream last night... Read Full Chapter
