Hello-ween Students! Time for us to TELL ALL………………….
Yesterday the Graphics Department thought they were being smarty pants and posted a photo that SHE figured might be a challenge. In less than five minutes it was guessed. So much for challenges!!!
“Tee Hee……you called the Graphics Department SMARTY PANTS……hahaha!”
So glad you thought that was funny……………..will you feel this happy when I tell you that NONE OF YOU GIGGLERS WERE Right Guessers NOR were you FIRST COMMENTERS????
Now let’s carry on.
YESTERDAY’S FIRST COMMENTERS WERE:
PUGSLY’S DRUMROLL……….
Timmy, Sharon, Ingrid and Cecilia!
Woo Hoo for you hoo…….and here’s your badge:
AND…..very shortly after class began, we had our FIRST RIGHT GUESSER and it was one of our FIRST COMMENTERS so this lucky student gets the DOUBLE WIN BADGE this week!
DRUMROLL BY PETER PANDA……..
TIMMY!
YAY for you Timmy…..and here’s your badge for being a DOUBLE!
We’ll give you the scoop on the Teaser photo in a minute but first let’s award badges to all of you who were RIGHT but didn’t guess FIRST on the Teaser:
AND if you guessed but were TOTALLY WRONG – well – you still get a badge!
NOW! I bet you want to know about the Teaser Photo??
The Minister’s Tree House, Crossville, Tennessee
Created by order of God himself (or at least that’s what the believing constructor claims), the Minister’s Tree House is world’s largest tree house. Minister Horace Burgess had a vision in which God told him if he builds a tree house; he’ll never run out of material. He didn’t. Indeed, there was always enough of wood to keep on building, until finally, a gigantic structure stood in the middle of the forest. It did only cost $12000 but has over 3000 square meters. There’s a church bell inside, large halls and many rooms. After being open to visitors for years, the house was closed in 2012, because it violated the fire code and was considered dangerous by the local fire department.
“Well – all that stuff is swell but I wanna know about the Halloween contest again!!”
You can send in your photos any time you want to between NOW and October 22.
WHO is ready for breakfast or lunch in the cafeteria (besides us!)??
Students – breakfast and lunch are now served!
Today’s Choices:
SEE YOU NEXT WEEK STUDENTS! GOOD JOB THIS WEEK………

That house was scary and my first thought on seeing it (before I read the story) was that it was going to burn down!
