Math Morals
By Kelly Anne
“Brrrrrrring,” went the school bell. The crisp air on the playground felt amazing. I didn’t want to go inside. The big trees surrounding our playground were just beginning to change colors and the slides, swings, and giant field were all calling my name.
“Come on Jay!”
I grabbed my backpack and jogged into our school. I briskly walked to the classroom. Miss Fisher hates it when I’m late.
“Hey man!” Jordan called out.
“Hey Jordan,” we high-fived.
I strolled into our large classroom, and began unloading my backpack. I set my homework out on our table, and hung up my backpack.
The light streamed into our classroom through the big open windows, and I looked outside to where other students were still walking in. On my way back to …show more content…
“Good thing Mom made me study last night,” I thought. I was going to ace this one! Miss Fisher slowly walked around the classroom, leaving 4 quizzes on each table. I grabbed one, and handed another to Jordan.
“Hey, are you ready for this?” Jordan asked me.
“I think so,“ I responded.
Jordan just grimaced. He didn’t have to say anything for me to realize he wasn’t ready for the quiz. I felt bad for him, but was excited that this would help me boost my math grade! I grabbed a pencil from the table cubby, and wrote my name at the top. I skimmed over the questions, and felt comfortable about each one.
Miss Fisher paced around the classroom while I worked on Question 1. After a minute, she sat down at her desk and began grading yesterday’s essays.
“Pssssst,” Jordan said under his breath. I looked up at him. “Jay, what’d you get for Question 1?”
Refer to the passage, “Math Morals.” Write a narrative that a good ending.tells the rest of the story from Jordan’s point of view. Be sure your narrative smoothly continues the story, using what you know about the setting and the characters.
