2. •This story was about a boy named
Victor and it was his first day of
seventh grade.
•New school, new city, and a new
neighborhood.
•When he got to school, he ran into
his old friend Theresa.
3. One day in French class, Victor was day
dreaming at his desk. That’s when Mr. Bueller
called on him to say what was written on the
board.
Victor didn’t know what to do. So he just said
something that didn’t even sound like English.
Victor wasn’t that good at French. When class
was over, Mr. Bueller started to laugh because
he remembers when he was just a young boy
trying to impress a girl that he really liked.
4. The Seventh Grader
The next day, Victor and Theresa were in math
class. Now this was a subject that Victor was really
good at.
Theresa wasn’t to good at math. So, she asked
Victor if he could tutor her. Victor was shocked that
Theresa finally talked to him.
He said, “ Sure. We can meet after school in the
library.”
Theresa said, “ ok, make sure you bring your math
book and notebook.”

just started kindergarten. Everyday, Laurie
comes home and talks about this boy
named “Charles.”

classroom.

real handful?” Laurie’s mom and dad
laughed.

and took a crayon off of another students desk.
My teacher had hit Charles with the ruler two
times and told him to stand in the corner.
7. “ Charles”
Charles also told a girl sitting next to
him to say a bad word out loud. His
father said what word did he tell her to
say?
Laurie went over to his dad and
whispered the word into his ear.
His dad’s eyes widened and his mouth
dropped.
8. “Charles”
• Laurie’s mom said that there is going to be a PTA meeting
tomorrow and I want to meet this “Charles” and his
parents.
• His dad said, “maybe you can invite her over for tea.
When you invite her over, talk about how can she put up
with her little boy.”
• The next day, Laurie’s mom went to the PTA meeting and
found his teacher. Laurie’s mom said, “You must be tired
when you go home after dealing with Charles.”
• Laurie’s teacher said, “There is no Charles in
kindergarten.”
