"Is this for the entire day?" Derek asked. "Yes, I thought it better that you can shadow some of the teaching staff. I understand you were in classes as a teaching assistant last week, and so this might seem a bit strange, but shadowing is always a good idea for positions such as this," Principal Franklin responded. She had just given Derek his assignment for the day, which was to follow a few different teachers around in their respective classes and learn from their teaching styles. Incorporating the elements he found to be effective is something that Principal Franklin emphasized in him succeeding at the school. "If you insist," Derek spoke hesitantly. He hadn't met a three of the five teachers he would be shadowing that day. One of the two that he knew clearly didn't have many nice things to say, considering she gave him a very hard time when they worked together the previous week. That was Mrs. Robbins. The other of the two he knew, Mrs. Johnson, was very nice. She was somewhat of a klutz at times, and that nearly caused an accident between her and Derek, but the little guy knew that she was worth forgiving. The other three would be coin flips, though. Principal Franklin briefly went over each of them to clue Derek in on what he might expect.
"Deborah Kingsley is the shortest out of these three, so you should be able to tell who she is right away. I know even with your stature she'll be very tall, but trust me, even from your perspective you'll understand. She's also a little wide, so do be nice. Portia Caras is a very understanding person. Today, I believe she's wearing blue jeans and a black T-shirt with a funny quote on it, so you should be able to distinguish that. Finally, Lily Thompson is the youngest of the three, she's twenty-eight. She wears glasses and will be wearing leggings and Birkenstocks today. Hopefully you enjoy your time with them. Good luck! I'll see you after school hours to discuss your shadowing." The principal then waved Derek out of her office.
"Great, I can't wait," Derek sarcastically remarked as he was leaving. "All right, let's see who's first."
Who was the first teacher Derek would be shadowing?
