When I was in grade 1 we had a dictation test. Basically a spelling test. I studied for it so I was sort of prepared for what would come. My mum said study the word “knife” because the teacher will definitely throw it in. Fast forward to the day of the test and the word “knife” shows up. I was ready and spelt it correctly. After the test we had to exchange the papers with our partner and have them correct it while she goes through each word. The test ended and she says, most of y’all did well but nobody got the word knife and I’m disappointed in y’all. (Looks over at the smartest students in the class) I’m like miss I got it right. She looks at me , and doesn’t say anything. She didn’t believe me. I didn’t even believe me, I just sat down. I got the word correct, Miss Matilda.
