She was the meanest teacher in the whole world. The students pulled their math books out and waited. Jonah, the class troublemaker, whispered to the children around him,”Let 's hide in the bathroom.” Jack, the one that heard, replied, “Sure.” Mrs. Riely screeched,”If you want to hide, hide in the office!” She calmed down and said,”Flip to…
