A male teacher in an elementary school
From Create Your Own Story
Getting into school on a Monday morning, for another week of stress, is only good because you get to see your class. They are a lovely bunch of kids, and are probably your favourite class you've ever had. Particularly the 2 Daisys.
You say hello to your colleagues as you walk down the hall before pushing open the door to your class. You look around at the displays on the wall, taking in the colour. Only 40 minutes before the children start filtering in...
As always the first child in is Daisy C. 8 years old, middle height with a skinny body but big bum for her age, you look her up and down as always (thanking god that you chose to work in a catholic school that had little uniforms) as she shoots you a smile and gets her book out to read before the register.
You say hello and chat to some parents as they drop off their children. Daisy T's mom comes and tells you that she's forgotten her homework. "We were just too busy this weekend!" she says, Daisy peeking out from behind her. Daisy T was much taller than the rest of the class, with long pale limbs and red hair with freckles which spoke of her Irish ancestry. Because of her height her skirt was always too small, and her long legs often caught your eye as he walked around the room.
"That's ok", you assure her mother, "she'll have to do it at lunchtime instead though".
Daisy T and her mom both nodded, and Daisy scampered off to get her book.
You take the register, with only Henry absent and tell the children to put away their books for their first lesson.
