It’s March 25. 
Today is “Tolkien Reading Day.”  What special token should they award to any student caught reading 
The Hobbit today?
Trivial Fact of the Day:   A flamingo can only eat when its head is upside down.  Have you ever swallowed food or drink while hanging upside down?
Interesting Quote of the Day:  “If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.” --J. R. R. Tolkien (British author and professor)
Vocabulary Word of the Day:  complacency (noun) – this fancy noun means self-satisfaction that is coupled with an unawareness of danger or controversy.  Often complacency can get its owner in trouble.  Can you think of an instance like that?
