Mr. Willis

On the last day of March Bridget reported that Mr. Young was not going to be at school the next day. Too bad.. she wouldn't be able to play any April Fools tricks on him.
Next day Bridget arrives at school and she has a substitute named Mr. Willis. He is bald and wears glasses and unusual clothes. His voice is interesting, and he is very specific about their tasks: Now we will do this for the next 4 minutes. (Bridget acted out for us how he seemed nervous as he wrung his hands while talking to them). He plays football with the boys at recess. He's serious.

Not until AFTER LUNCH did he disclose his true identity.

IT WAS MR. YOUNG!

But Mr. Young has lot's of hair on his head and face... He shaved it all!
But Mr. Young doesn't wear glasses... he found some!
But Mr. Young ALWAYS wears dress pants, shirt, tie and black converse sneakers...apparantly he has a few other choices in his closet!
But Mr. Young is not nervous or too serious...but forced himself to be!
But Mr. Young never plays football at recess...

These are the things that kept Bridget wondering all morning who this Mr. Willis in her classroom truly was. But admitted that she thought it could have been his brother because there was something about him that seemed familiar!! He is good if he kept it going through lunch.

I think he's read this
It may have been a while since you've seen this side of Bridget...enjoy!
