Beating fast, the bird's heart beats. The bird stands up and flies away. Everyone is happy for the bird that visited Room 101 that day.

The Flying Bird by William
"Clunk" the window goes as everyone sees a bird fall to the ground. Our teacher goes out, grabs the bird, and puts it in a tissue box on our window sill.
Beating fast, the bird's heart beats. The bird stands up and flies away. Everyone is happy for the bird that visited Room 101 that day.

Poems in the Making by Mac
Poems, Poems in the making. In class we were recently making poetry books. The whole class was working really hard. So was I. It was very hard work, too.
The video above contains photos of our class's poetry anthology covers taken by Mac. It's set to Some Nights by FUN, a song chosen by Mac for the video.

Handball by Andrew
A bunch of fourth graders at recess started to play a new game called Handball.
The things you need are a ball, a net, and friends. There is a goalie in the net and as many friends on the field as you want. You need one pass before you shoot. Every time the goalie makes a save or a team scores a goal, the goalie throws the ball out. And that is how you play Handball.

Every year Knollwood has a book fair from sports to cooking to comics and much, much more.
The kids at Knollwood and sometimes Sickles love the books a the Knollwood Book Fair, especially the toys.

Invention Crazy! by Ellie
Invention time! All over Room 101 are inventions that we worked on. One of the
classes came in and looked at the tables. There were different types of inventions.
Some are sporty and some are trendy. We worked hard.
There's a lot going on in Room 101. Lots of inventions and very hard work.

What's Up in Gym Class by Mason
Gym at Knollwood is really fun but it is also extremely different from other classes because you use your body and you get to run.
At gym, the gym teacher, Mr. Lydon, knows a lot of fun games, and even if it's an ordinary game like tag, he knows a really fun way to play it. One of the best games is Capture the Flag, which is the first game we learned.
How you play Capture the Flag is there are two teams and two sides. When the game starts, you try to run or you can try to tag people who are on your side but on the other team. If you run, you have to try to grab a "flag" which could be anything to represent it. If you grab a flag from the box, you are safe, but when you leave the box, you have to run to your side. If you get tagged, you have to go to jail.
When you go to jail, you have to wait for someone on your team to rescue you by running across to the jail without getting tagged.
Gym, in my opinion, is the best subject because you get to run around and have a lot of fun.
