"As long as I'm jumping all over Mr. Li's computer keyboard," Ollie said, "would you like to see something else cool? Check this out--a lizard evolution lab!"

"Uh, Ollie? That is The Awesome! Thanks! But just how long was I asleep? Seems like you saw a LOT of stuff!"
"It's not how long, sis, it's when. Mr. Li has students he tutors every weekday from around noon to three or four in the afternoon. You just happened to sleep right through that part, while he was showing his students some neat resources online."
"How many students does he have?"
"Mm," said Ollie. "Hadn't really counted them. Well--there was a girl, Ellie, who was probably in first or second grade. She liked the spider song. And then there was Tomas, a little older--like maybe fifth or sixth grade? He saw the lizard thing. And then there was Shanya. Mr. Li talked to her about plants or something. And then the last one was Cheryl, about fifth grade too, I think, and they were going over some experiment she was working on with tardi...tarda...tardasomethings. I didn't quite catch what they were. We can find out more tomorrow."
