PG 1 of book need advice

         In a long room with 26 people in desks a chalkboard and a computer. The teacher Mrs. Donatello stands, she moves in front of the chalkboard where she grabs a piece of chalk. She begins to write, her body obscures the letters. She moves and then proceeds to turns to the class. Behind her on the chalkboard is written in long loopy cursive letters written in white chalk says the words "Quiz tomorrow in math, be prepared." Mrs. Donatello says aloud with a hoarse voice "Any questions". Silence. you could hear only the hum of the cars outside the window. She says "Very well, as soon as the bell rings you kids may go to recess." As if on cue the bell rings. The kids line up in a crazy but orderly way. As though gunshots in a painting may seem crazy, you still know an  artist took time to perfectly place them. They walk out for recess.

He stops on his driveway and looks at his house. It is long and has two stories. It is made of wood and is painted yellow. the paint is starting to chip off. There is a small garden along the path where you walk up to a washed out white door. On the driveway is a beaten up blue 1968 Chevy four door Camaro. His mom is home.
