Live & Learn/School Days

Ready for school 2 day

## Plot

In this 30 minutes episode, Holly Higgins calls out to Jacob Blue Jay asking if he got students for his flying school. Jacob says yes, he'll have 3 students for his flying school so he isn't lonely while Iggy Igauna and Gloria Gopher are at school, and Holly mentions taking a computer class at the college. Jacob is proud he'll be the only teacher, before going to set up his class. Iggy asks why Holly needs to learn about computers since she's an artist. Holly explains its another type of art, but is worried since she doesn't know anything about computers she may not be able to keep up, but Gloria and Iggy think she'll be okay, and remind her she set the computer up all by herself. Gloria asks why we have to go to school, and Holly explains it will allow her to be independent, and answers Gloria's other worries. Iggy shows off his school supplies. They sing about being read for school. The next morning Jacob flies off calling goodbye, as Holly & Iggy are ready. Gloria tries to get out of going but is convinced by Holly. After Gloria and Holly walk off Iggy suddenly falls back due to his very heavy backpack (he used a rope to get it down to the ground) and bumps into a young girl named Chantal. She suggests staying at Iggy's house. Iggy says she sounds like Gloria, but reminds her he needs help getting to school with his heavy bag so she has to go and they leave. Jacob greets 2 of his new students, Dave and Jane, when suddenly the 3rd student Curtis shows up telling rude rumours about the teacher, even after Jacob says he is the teacher. In the flying school classroom, Jacob talks about the take off, flight and landing. Curtis wonders when they get to fly and continues to be the class clown, making Jane and Dave laugh, and eventually they all ignore him. Upstairs, Holly is tired. She greets Gloria who hated school, mad she and Iggy were in different classes and the teacher called her Gail, too shy to correct her. Iggy loved it, but Jacob also hated his day. Holly suggests Jacob teach her tomorrow morning. That night Holly is completely confused by her homework. Holly tried to show Iggy she learned something, but realizes she lost her homework. Holly is scared by Iggy's new bat pencil sharpener which brings Jacob and Gloria to the main room. Holly reminds them of the joy of learning and then sing about it. The next morning Gloria has resigned herself to be called Gail, and Holly is dressed like a bird to be Jacob's student. Jacob begins speaking very fast, but Holly reminds her to speak slowly because its new to her and his students. With no wind Holly suggests trying tomorrow but Jacob says it just takes more power. Holly understands but Jacob says he needs to her try to show she was listening. With a little guilt she tries but hurts herself landing in a tree, before she limps back upstairs but Jacob is now excited to teach. Gloria sneaks back to the porch determined to hide. Chantal finds her and recognizes her as Gail and both are determined to stay home. Both are scared of school because they known no one. Chantal realizes they know each other, and offers to tell the teacher Gloria's name. They both agree to go. Jacob continues teaching in the front yard and all 3 birds are amazed by Jacob's take off/flying. While he's flying, Jacob wonders why Curtis is interested now, and the other 2 explain it. Curtis shows Jacob how much he is interested. Later, Gloria happily gets home telling Iggy how much she enjoyed school. By the kitchen Curtis asks Jacob more questions respecfully, and the others are impressed after Curtis leaves. Holly shows off her school project that says Ready to Learn and then everyone sings about learning.
