Today’s things are: chatting, crying, laughing

We were all laughing today when Miss Teresa walked into the classroom. John Butts had just discovered his mum had made him tomato sandwiches for lunch and as it was a stinking hot day upon inspection, his sandwiches had gone all soggy.

John was crying about his unfortunate situation, and we were all laughing, glad it wasn’t us.

Miss Teresa was not happy with us when she discovered the source of our laughter. She scolded us for being so mean and sent John to the canteen with a note for him to order another sandwich.

Back at our desks, we chatted about one thing and another until Miss Teresa called us to order and advised us that as we could all chat under water with a mouth full of marbles she was going to begin a debating exercise where we could put all our chatting into some formal order.

At this, the chatting died down and the laughter of before silenced well and truly.
