The best thing I learned in third grade
I liked kindergarten and first grade. Even in second grade, when I went to a new school and my best friend, Mary, stayed at my old school, I had a happy time.
Everything was fine—until third grade.
Right from the first day, things felt different. The classroom was a "split grade"—half the students were in third grade, and half were in fourth. Miss Malm explained that everyone had to be very quiet, especially when she was teaching the other grade. She said that if you talked without raising your hand, you would be sent out of the room for a while.
