分章摘要 · 11 章
Ch.1 Fizz Ed Is the Coolest:A.J. 讨厌读、写、算,学校里唯一喜欢的是「Fizz Ed」(体育课)。其实他从没上过体育课,只听住在街角、在别的学校上三年级的朋友 Billy 说体育课能玩躲避球、篮球和橄榄球。终于升到二年级,Daisy 老师宣布排队去体育馆见 Small 老师,全班欢呼。
Ch.2 Smarty-pants and Dumbhead:Emily 问 Fizz Ed 是不是要学汽水,A.J. 骂她 dumbhead,被 Daisy 老师喝止「hold your tongue」,他就真的伸出舌头用手抓住。去体育馆的路上他和爱显摆的 Andrea 争论冰壶和跳舞算不算运动,到了体育馆还玩起回声。这时 Small 老师从办公室跑了出来。
Ch.3 Fun, Fun, Fun with Miss Small:Small 老师抱着一堆球从看台跳上蹦床想灌篮,结果摔成一团,却说这是故意示范体育馆里「不该怎么做」,因为安全第一。她高得头快碰到篮筐,名字却叫 Small(小),和本人正相反。她说体育课的目标是让大家都有 cooties——合作、团队精神和体育精神,然后带全班拉伸、做了一百万个开合跳。
Ch.4 A Dumb Balancing Act:A.J. 他们一路猜要打橄榄球、篮球、足球,Small 老师却从箱子里拿出和手臂一样长的孔雀羽毛,比谁能在手指上平衡得最久。男生们的羽毛全都掉了,只有 Andrea 的稳稳立着,拿到「羽毛平衡专家」证书。A.J. 气得直说:我讨厌她。
Ch.5 Howdy, Pardner!:男女生分两边站好,A.J. 以为要玩躲避球,还和 Ryan 商量好用球砸 Andrea 的头。结果 Small 老师戴上草帽、放起乡村音乐,教大家跳方块舞,A.J. 只好和 Andrea 搭档 do-si-do,被 Ryan 起哄说他俩恋爱了。接着又跳了他认为史上最傻的小鸡舞。
Ch.6 The Truth About Miss Small:午饭时在 vomitorium(餐厅兼礼堂,因去年有小朋友在里面吐了而得名)里,男生们议论 Small 老师大概有七英尺高,说她当篮球运动员或天气预报员更合适。Michael 和 Ryan 开玩笑说她可能是外星变种人,是来绑架真正体育老师的冒牌货。当真的 Emily 吓白了脸,喊着「我们得做点什么」跑了出去。
Ch.7 Fizz Ed Is Dumb:再去体育课时,女生欢呼、男生喝倒彩。Small 老师教大家抛接彩色丝巾,说丝巾会飘、能锻炼手眼协调。A.J. 怎么抛都掉,还抱怨自己的丝巾坏了、要求换新的。全班只有 Andrea 成功,又拿到一张「抛接专家」证书。
Ch.8 Ghost in the Graveyard:Andrea 在教室里用三个苹果表演抛接,还把苹果送给 Daisy 老师。A.J. 装病说「我的肚子头疼,或者我的头肚子疼」想逃掉体育课,Daisy 老师说治这病的办法就是上一小时体育课。Small 老师带大家到操场玩「墓地幽灵」,孩子们四处都找不到她,最后头顶传来咔嚓声——她连人带断掉的树枝摔了下来。
Ch.9 Fit as a Fiddle:A.J. 跑去叫来护士 Cooney 太太,她检查后说 Small 老师的腿断了,救护车很快把她送去医院。全班写了慰问卡,几天后 Small 老师打着石膏、拄着拐杖回到学校,仍笑着说自己 fit as a fiddle,继续带大家玩红灯绿灯、红色罗孚、鸭鸭鹅等游戏。A.J. 承认这些老掉牙的游戏其实还挺好玩。
Ch.10 Cooties and Clog Dancing:Klutz 校长广播说 Small 老师今天满「四分之一个世纪」。分享课上 A.J. 带来爷爷打仗时戴的军用头盔,Andrea 却点燃三根火棒表演抛接,还说以后要边骑独轮车边抛接。体育课玩两人三足,只剩 A.J. 和 Andrea 没搭档,她用木屐舞的「一…二…」节奏带着他跑,两人甩开所有人赢了 Ryan 和 Michael。
Ch.11 Grown-ups Are Weird:课间时 Andrea 和 Emily 忧心忡忡,觉得「四分之一个世纪」很老的 Small 老师这样蹦跳会摔死,该劝她成熟起来。孩子们绕到体育馆后门,冲进去大喊「Freeze, dirtbags!」,却撞见全校大人在跳小鸡舞、跳房子、转呼啦圈、跳绳、玩凌波舞。大人们说凭什么只有小孩能玩,这是他们一天里唯一能放松的时间。A.J. 只好感叹:大人真奇怪。
