Some Questions overview
The Teacher and Little Teddy As Mrs. Thompson stood in front of her 5th grade class on the
very first day of school, she told the children an untruth. Like most teachers, she looked at
her students and said that she loved them all the same. However, that was impossible,
because there in the front row, slumped in his seat, was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard.
Mrs. Thompson had watched Teddy the year before and noticed that he did not play well
with the other children, that his clothes were messy and that he constantly needed a bath.
In addition, Teddy could be unpleasant. It got to the point where Mrs. Thompson would
actually take delight in marking his papers with a broad red pen, making bold X’s and then
putting a big “F” at the top of his papers.
