Today was the day that Miss Jackson dreaded each year -- April Fool's Day. Every year on this day, her students would play all sorts of tricks on her. They enjoyed doing this because she is the most timid teacher in the school.

Her first period was with Secondary 1G. The class was unusually quiet today. She entered the door slowly, peering cautiously at the top of the door to see if there was any bucket of water balanced there. Much to her relief, she found nothing there.

"Good morning, Miss Jackson," chorused the class, grinning from ear to ear. Miss Jackson eyed them suspiciously. One popular trick her students loved to play was to switch classrooms with the next class. Today, however, her students had not changed classes.

As the period wore on, Miss Jackson grew more and more puzzled. She had expected all kinds of tricks but there were none. No one took away the chalk from the blackboard. Neither was there any strange noise from the class. In fact, the class had never behaved so well before Miss Jackson became increasingly tense. In the end, she dismissed the class early and walked out with a most confused look on her face.

After she had left, there was an uproar from the class. "Best trick we ever played," said someone. "The best trick to play on Miss Jackson is simply not to play any trick at all!"
