A GYM FULL OF KIDS, A BASKETBALL GAME AND A NEW TRADITION ~ THE SILENT TREATMENT

Brenda I was not at the game but I can only imagine the other team and their students must have been wondering just a little.  Pretty fun thing to do.

Myrl when I saw the headline of the video I was very curious because kids are never quiet in my experience and whats more neither are the parents maybe even more so. LOL

Connie I don't know who came up with the idea, but I think it was brilliant and a whole lot of fun and probably even more fun was watching the looks of wonder on the faces of the opposing team.

Cheryl, it would have been difficult for me too.  My tendancy is to let it out.  It did look to be fun and I really would have liked to have seen the looks on people's faces who were not in on the "game".

Hi Richard, I felt it was very interesting as well.  I have been around those kids and to keep their silence for that amount of time must have been a real test of will.

Hi Gayle, I really loved the whole concept and that they honestly managed it.  I was not at that particular game but Wilsonville has a good team this year, well for the last several years.  They are not in the AAA league I think but the next one down.  I am not sure and always get mixed up.  It has to do with population of schools I think.

Debb you are right I think the silence does make it more riveting.  I love the energy that the high school games creat anyway and this just seem a little more exciting.

Hi Connie,

It was very fun to try out Animoto and I will do more experimenting.  I love technology, ain't it great? LOL
