Mystery Theatre Winner!

Cody wins a Barnes and Noble Gift Certificate!

During the weeks of reading The Westing Game, some ambitious students checked the blog for opportunities to gain bonus points in Reading and earn chances to win a Barnes and Noble gift certificate.  Today, the name was drawn and Cody is our lucky winner.  He now has some money to buy a book or two of his choice!  Congratulations, Cody!

During cafe today, students discussed many theories about Mr. Westing.  Some believe that he has all the heirs fooled and is truly alive!  When asked for an explanation, they think that it's just for kicks!  Some think that there is a deeper reason, but they're not sure what.  The next assignment is to finish the book, and many students couldn't wait to begin reading the next chapter.  It will be fun finding out what Mr. Westing had or HAS up his sleeve!
