Product Description
A sixth grade class is left unsupervised for an entire school day...will they be able to make it until two p.m.? When the substitute for Mr. "Fab" Fabiano never shows up and his sixth grade students are on their own, they set out to prove that they can run the class by themselves. With a little ingenuity and some careful planning, they might just succeed. But when a fight breaks out between Bastian Fauvell and Rachel White over a classmate, Tommy Feathers, who died six months earlier, everthing begins to fall apart. Can Rachel deal with the anxieties that plunged her into silence the day Tommy died? Inventive and uniquely constructed, FLYING SOLO follows Mr. Fab's students hour by hour as they tackle the challenges of a very unusual school day.

Flying Solo is an amazing book that keeps students on the edge of their seats. It is filled with an amazing adventure for students to react to and debate moral issues on. Students are able to connect with many of the characters in the story. It left my students wanting more!

Tommy feathers (a student) dies and Rachel (main character) stops talking. No teacher or sub shows up and the class runs it on there own. The class gets caught. It's a sad story from kids dying and its heart breaking to read this book, this is why I like this book.

The book is about some kids that go to school, and some of the students are at the school early beacuse she likes to talk to Mr.Fabiano alone. Then she walked in and looked at the black board. Well, it said "I Mr. Fabiano is absent today" and a lot of other things too. I loved this book because it was funny, I also can relate to it on so many different ways. There is not anything that I did not liked or enjoy about the book. I would give this book 5 out of 5 stars.

The book is about a class that has no sub and no teacher and they vote to see if they should tell someone or not. I loved the part were Bastian gives Sean a big present. I also loved the part were Rachel does something kind of unexpected. Last but not least I like the end. I loved every part in this book. I would totally recommend this book. I would give this book five stars.

The book is about a class that has no teacher or sub. So they told the student that took the attendance down to tell that they had no teacher or sub. Then they took a vote on who wanted a sub or teacher.
I liked when they did the rock ritual. I also liked when they shared there writing. I also liked when they got out of enrichment.
There was noting I didn't like about the book.
I would recommend this book to parents to read with there kids.
