The responsible students who turned in their reading calendar for October were privileged to take part in a taping event. Mrs. Angela Stoddard and Mr. Austin Cope became stuck to the wall as each child who had turned in a calendar was given a piece of duct tape to tape to those two. Since this was a slightly laborious task, the students who waited all brought books and most students read throughout the waiting period. At the end, everyone was shocked and pleased to see that the experiment had worked--since so many students had read and turned in their reading calendars, there was enough tape to hold up both Mr. Cope and Mrs. Stoddard for a few minutes. Mrs. Stoddard's last words of wisdom before the chair was removed were that she was "stuck on reading." Keep reading and turning in those reading calendars, Barnett!
