The whole class erupted in laughter, and right about this time Mr. Smith walked back into the classroom. Mr. Smith immediately told Ty to stop messing around and sit in his seat correctly, but Ty had to explain that his head was stuck. Mr. Smith sent Jackie to the office to have Ty’s parents called while Mr. Smith tugged at Ty’s head.
About 30 minutes later Ty’s parents, the school nurse, the principal, the janitor, and the yearbook photographer (Lisa) were all in the classroom. The janitor had a saw out and was getting ready to cut the chair when Lisa stopped him and had Max and Ty take a picture for the yearbook. Then the janitor carried on with Ty’s little problem.
For those of you who were wondering, yes they got Ty’s head out of the chair. It just wasn’t an easy process. Max and Ty went home for the summer and I’m sure they are still getting into trouble. Who know maybe they learned a lesson this time, probably not, but there’s still a chance.

  • The Theme Of Conflict In All Quiet On The Western Front

All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Remarque and The Redemption of Althalus by David & Leigh Eddings have the similar themes of war, morals, and family, but display them in very different contexts to create unique conflict between their characters.

In All Quiet on the Western Front, Paul describes the realistic, bleak parts as a soldier in a real war; he has to face the death of friends, starvation, illness, enemy troops, and the ultimate destruction of his innocence and humanity in the span of only about 3 years.
