EVOLUTION

It was the first day of the year 2009. It was a dull Monday morning in Springfield again, and Jimmy was reluctant to go to school because he remembered he had Mr. Fisher in a double biology lesson, he was really bored with Mr. Fisher’s lesson they were uninteresting. Jimmy’s mom, Lynda shouted for Jimmy and told him to come down for breakfast and make sure he does not miss the school bus - as he usually does.

Jimmy came down the stairs and dragged his feet towards the kitchen for something to eat before he set off, but it was too late, he saw his school bus parking up in front of his house ready to beep its horn, but before it could do that he opened the door said good-bye to his mom and jumped onto the bus. Lynda nodded her head in disgrace because she didn’t think sending her son to school with an empty stomach would do them any good. Jimmy believes the same thing but not that it was unhealthy, but the fact that he had to ready for Mr. Fisher’s double period.

 Jimmy got onto the bus, he looked around and everyone from his class seemed to be excited about something, but he didn’t know what.

“Jimmy!” shouted his best friend, Steve.

“Have you heard? Today we are going to have a new biology teacher!” exclaimed Steve.

Jimmy couldn’t believe it; he didn’t know what to say.

“Are you sure?” confirmed Jimmy.

Steve replied, “If you don’t believe me you can ask any one on the bus! They have all heard the news too!”

Jimmy looked around the bus, and every one else looked astonished and overwhelmed with the news too, so Jimmy believed him. It was usual for this to happen, especially when Mr. Fisher had been teaching at Springfield Elementary school for over five years.

 ‘It’s about time he left!’ Jimmy thought to him self. He was going to see for himself when he got to school.

They had arrived at school, the bus pulled up to the entrance of the school. Everyone flooded of the bus like a pack of hounds hunting for lunch. Jimmy also jumped of the bus in excitement and headed his way towards his class room. Everyone in his class was sitting down patiently for the new biology teacher to walk in.

The clock struck nine O clocks; it was time for a double biology period. The door knob turned and a tall man appeared in the door way. He was wearing a while lab coat and under was a shirt and a black tie, he had jet black hair with a clean shave and was holding a black briefcase in his right hand. He looked very smart and civilized. He looks fairly strict and looked like he meant business.

He certainly had a better taste of clothing than Mr. Fisher did. Mr. Fisher used to come in with a brown checkered jacket, a pink shirt, purple trousers and trainers. He used to wear all that for a term and then switch to his tracksuit for the rest of the year.

He came in and stood at the front of the class and made sure everyone was paying full attention.

“My name is Professor Keith; I will be your new biology teacher for today and maybe tomorrow if your headmaster decides to keep me. I do not tolerate and misbehavior from any of you while I teach this class, if you have any questions please raise you hand now so we can begin the lesson.” announced Prof. Keith.

 He made his way to the teacher’s desk, placed his briefcase on the desk. He pulled out his blur board marker and wrote ‘Cross Breeding’ on the board in capital letters. It sounded interesting to Jimmy, so as a result he decided to pay full attention to Prof. Keith’s lesson.

Join now!

He started off by explaining what the history behind cross breeding and then going onto explaining what it is. The whole class was quite, not a single whisper. They all seemed to be learning something for a change in biology from the new teacher.

It was the last ten minutes of the biology lesson,

“Tomorrow, if I’m still around we will see what happens when we cross-breed to animals together”, said Prof. Keith.

Our new teacher left the room exactly at eleven O clock. As soon as he left, everyone just broke out by screaming and shouting and ...
