"Class, I want to start off by saying that I hope all of you learned from Nellie's mistakes. Hopefully, all of you will be on time from now on, but if not, make sure that you do not make excuses and argue with me like Nellie did."
"No need to talk about that anymore. Let's get started with spelling. Everyone, turn to page 3 in your Spellers. Study these words until 8:45."
"Okay class, it is 8: 45. Go ahead and put your spellers away. We are going to continue to review what we did in math last year. Primer class, I'll work with you on your spelling in a few minutes. Laura, will you pass these papers out, they are in order by class."
"Yes ma'am."
