If he hadn’t been strapped in, Jason would not be able to sit still. He wanted to tell
everyone that he was going to be on TV. Every evening at 6:00 he watched his favorite
show “Class Acts.” Players answered questions for money. If they missed a question they
had to act out the title of a song, TV show, or book. He knew most of the answers, so he
sent in a letter to try to get on the show. Three weeks ago, his mother called him to the
phone. He had been chosen to be a contestant. They even sent him two tickets so he and
his mother could fly into the city.
Jason worked hard to get ready. He watched “Class Acts” every evening. His
family would play against each other. Everyone made up all kinds of questions about
science, music, movies, games, and books. His friends asked him questions on the
playground at recess. Even his teacher took time to play the game in class. She asked
questions about the subjects they were studying.
Jason could feel the plane getting ready to land. He looked out the window and
saw the Statue of Liberty. He had butterflies in his stomach, but he couldn’t wait for the
game to begin.
