The next morning, all the students who are in Mr. Ratburn's class entered the classroom, and immediately sit down in their desks. Frieda and Joanie are sitting next to each other. They hear the footsteps, and someone was opening the door. It was Mr. Ratburn, who was in his early to mid 50s, and is still teaching the same class.
"Good morning class," said Mr. Ratburn.
"Good morning, Mr. Ra-" the whole class responded. But there was a knock on the door. It was Fern and her daughter, Caroline, who is wearing the same red bow that Fern wore over 20 years ago. Fern, on the other hand, now wears a fashion hat since her marriage to Stan.
"Yes?" said Mr. Ratburn to Fern.
"Sorry to hear you this, Mr. Ratburn," said Fern. "We got a traffic jam, and it lasted for five minutes."
"Mom," said Caroline. "Why am I in Mr. Ratburn's class?"
"I looked at the class list, and your name is in his class," said Fern. "Now, good luck in his class."
Fern gave her daughter a hug, and she leaves. Caroline sits next to Polly.
"Okay," said Mr. Ratburn. "Let's do some role calls..."
Mr. Ratburn goes through the list of his students.
"Finn Alderton?"
"Here," replied Finn.
"Joanie Baxter?"
Joanie raised her hand. "Here."
"Casey Farlett?"
Casey raised his hand.
Mr. Ratburn nodded. "Walter Glenberg?"
"Here," replied the rabbit boy who is Carl's son.
"Vera Lundgren?"
"Here," said the moose girl who is George's daughter.
"Crystal McPike?"
"Here," said the cat girl who is Quincy and Katie's daughter.
"Caroline Pemberton?"
"Here," replied the dog girl.
"Daisy Pollock?"
"Here," said Daisy.
"Garrett Powers?"
"Here," said the bear boy who is Alan's son.
"Frieda Read?"
"Present," said Frieda.
"Polly Williams?"
"Here," said Polly.
"Chloe Wilson?"
"Here," said Chloe.
"Well, that sums it all up," said Mr. Ratburn. "And now, it's time a math test."
Mr. Ratburn hands all the students a sheet of math test.
"You only have two minutes," said Mr. Ratburn. "Good luck."
They are all taking a math test. Polly immediately looked out the window to see Randy.
"Eyes on your paper, Miss Williams," said Mr. Ratburn.
After two minutes is up, all the students turn in their papers to Mr. Ratburn.
