The Friday Everything Changed

The boys think that they are on the top of the world. While the girls keep trying to be just as important. Girls are only allowed to do certain things, while the boys can do basically anything they want. The girls try to have just as many rights as the boys. Miss Ralston is the teacher who is in charge of the whole class. In this part of the story it is saying what the girls think of their teacher, and what the boys think about their teacher. The girls think of the teacher as someone who they look up to and they think she is all pretty and well put together, they think of her as someone who is feminine because she is dressing so nicely. The boys look at their teacher and see a tough person inside of her. When in the story the boys are referring to Miss Ralston "for strapping so hard" it seems like the boys think that she is someone who is strict and something inside of her is built like a man. All these kids look up to their teacher, the boys see their teacher in a different way as the girls do.
