Mrs. Granger is a teacher at Lincoln Elementary School. She is very strict and demanding. She is an old-fashioned woman who loves dictionaries.
This woman’s Monday routine is a busy one. She wakes up at 7.00 a.m. when the chickens start to sing. She prepares herself a thriving serving of bacon and fresh eggs. When she’s done, she goes to school in her old, pale blue car. Unfortunately, Mrs. Granger usually has lunch sitting alone in the filthy toilet. After her lonely lunch, she teaches language arts in fifth form, a class kids don’t usually hope for. Afterwards, she returns home and updates all her social networks and her gardening blog. At 5.00 p.m. every Monday afternoon, this lady corrects her students’ homework and tests, and also prepares new ones. Then, she takes care of her 27 cats, she feeds the cats and sings to them. At night, she regularly orders some pizza and eats it while she solves puzzles. At long last, she goes to bed.
Today she’s having a rather different routine because it’s Saturday, her free day. Mrs. Granger is getting up at 5.00 a.m. and washing off the eggs the bullies have thrown at her car. Later on, she’s having a relaxing yoga class. At noon, she is having lunch with her yoga mates. After her meal, Mrs. Granger is playing twister with her cats. At 4.30 p.m. she is cutting the grass and arranging her garden while singing opera music. Later on, this lady is working out with her huge collection of dictionaries. In the evening, she is watching movies while eating mint ice-cream. At 10.00 p.m. Mrs. Granger is worshipping her dictionaries, polishing them and rereading them all as well. After doing all these things, at 12.00 p.m., she is going to sleep.
