We also observed the three minutes - sort of. This is what happened: We'd already had five silent minutes yesterday. The teacher we had today said that it wasn't neccessary to interrupt our work again and wanted to continue (
). Then, at 12 o'clock, everybody stopped talking and working of their own accord and sat silently for 5 minutes. The teacher was frustrated but couldn't do anything (
). It shows how stupid some people can be, yet I am proud of my class for observing the silent time against the teacher's wishes. There is also a German flag hanging at half-mast (can you say that) at all public buildings. We don't have a German flag (oops) so we took another one. There is also an American flag and a black band hanging in the entrance hall of our school. Americans, you are not alone.
