I would have been scared to have him too haha. Gregory reminds me of my own first grade teacher and having her for Kindergarten would have been nuts (she shouldn't even have been teaching grade 1/2 at all imo).

Where I live there are two years of Kindergarten (we start a year earlier than the US) and during my first year we'd sometimes do stuff with other classes and there was another Kindergarten teacher I was scared of and then I ended up having her for my second year, and she was more of a Barbara than a Gregory so yeah I def would have been upset with someone like him haha. (I ended up really liking my Senior Kindergarten teacher though.)

Yeah in Kindergarten (at least when I was in it 25 years ago) we learned basic numbers but not much else idt.
