It is ghost town so i the day would be very quiet and very easy to learn more than a public school.also will would not have a lot of supplies to learn for the day. Also, the lunch would be nasty so you would be hungry the whole day and you may would need gas mask since theres a lot of pollution.

Answer:

1) No Feathers, No writing!! - Three schools are out of feathers, making obligatory the coal´s use.

2) Hornbooks on Fire!!! - the 13th fire consumed all the hornbooks stored in one of the rooms!!

3)Duncing´a´lot!! - The ¨duncing¨practice getting popular in the schools!

Step-by-step explanation:

1) In colonial times, the materials normally used to write in colonial schools were quills on birch bark, or on a slate, some students had even to use coal to write down their lessons.

2) The places assigned as schools were basically big houses, divided and distributed in different rooms, and the Hornbooks were pieces of wood with printed words on both sides of them, normally with holy texts or brief stories on them, the modern books replaced this archaic academic item.

3) The ¨punishments¨ in colonial schools were sometimes really harsh and humiliating,whipping was a common practice, also the ¨dunce¨ hat was an item normally used, placing the student alone in a corner, looking to the wall, with a cone-shaped long hat over the head.
