Thought for the Day
Robyn Reports the Nutty Neighborhood Block Party
Chapter 7 - A Spitting Dispute!
Henry accuses Sarah of cheating by
drinking soda instead of water. That
is against the rules. Robyn suggests
that Mrs. Rogers taste the drink to
find out. It is water and the contest
continues. No one can tell whose
seed is the one that traveled farthest.
Robyn announces that she knows for sure who won.
E-Edition Activity:
If Sarah had been drinking soda, she would have been
breaking the contest rules. Why is it important to obey rules?
Can you find a story in the e-edition that is about someone
who broke a rule? See if you can find one and summarize it
by describing the broken rule and what happened when it
was broken.
