As part of a school fundraiser, the children of Apple Tree House take part in a sponsored silence. But as they slowly grow more and more restless, they learn that there are many ways to communicate without words... and they create their own silent movie.

A solar eclipse is on its way. As the children excitedly wait for it to begin, they learn how different cultures celebrate this special event.

No one can escape Bella's singing. She's determined to make herself be heard ahead of the school choir concert, but there's the small matter of this week's spellings that must be learned first. The children learn about night school and that learning isn't just for kids. This brings a surprise as Bella's dad Ian overcomes a childhood fear.
