Describe Mrs. Crandell. Based on her and Cassie’s first day of school, what kind of year do you think they will have together in the classroom? Explain.

Mrs. Crandell is described as "shy and sweet". Cassie didn't find her teaching methods anymore exciting that Miss Crocker's, but she appreciated the way Mrs. Crandell sympathized with her short attention span, thus, Cassie believes they will do just fine.
