The next morning, Grandma hands me my backpack. “You are a big boy now,” she says. “You’re in second grade!” I try to act big. Then I give her a hug.

Slide 6: 

Our teacher is standing by the chalkboard. “Good morning, girls and boys,” he says. “I’m your new teacher, Mr. Roy.” He gives the class a big grin. Then he looks around. “Where’s the chalk?” he asks. In the elementary schools in the U.S. , there is only one teacher who teaches math, reading, English, and social science in a classroom (at least from Grade K-4). Every school year, the teacher and the students are different. How is your class? Is your class the same with this? Questions:

Everyone laughs. Mr. Roy gives me a wink. I like this teacher. What makes David like this new teacher? Questions:
