Exactly if it is a list of plural possessives then teach is wrong and I would email her and simply ask her to explain her theory.

~lmao~

I think I will not disclose that.

But I may email her, because I'm even more confused now, I think.

If the entire list is plural possessive's (possessives?)

And classes is the plural of class

Should it not be classes' ?

My apologies. For some reason I totally missed the "plural" in your original post. My bad.

However, you may be up against it. I've posted before about my daughter, the spelling bee and the word "doughnut." The startled teacher said "that's right, of course, but I was looking for 'donut.'"

Thanks for reminding me about this book. I saw the author on the "Today Show" and she's a stitch.

Now, all I have to do is decide whether or not to leave it on my "Wish List" or just buy myself a present.

(Should have been semi-colons in that last, I suspect.)
