Added DiffLines:


* In Sideways Arithmetic from Wayside School they mentioned in the chapter 'numbers' add apples and oranges, and Sue finally breaks, shouting that it equals "fruit." lots standardised standardised tests have a 'say how are these two things are in common' question in there. (many times appearing in 'math' but have seen them appear in the 'Reading section' in one or two of them, or even having a dedicated section to this style thing.) this could be a joke about standardised tests.

* We never learn anything about Sharie's home life. What if the reason she sleeps in class is because [[AdultFear she isn't safe at home]], and SleepLearning is Mrs. Jewls' way to excuse it?

* In "Wayside School Gets a Little Stranger", Mrs. Jewls is eating "bologna-o’s" (Oreos with bologna in place of the cream filling). At first this might just seem like typical random/silly/weird Wayside School stuff, but it’s probably a case of WackyCravings because in the same chapter where she is eating them, it’s revealed that she is pregnant.

* In the very first chapter of the first book, we get the line "Mrs. Gorf didn't like children, but she loved apples". [[ChildEater What exactly]] might she have been planning to do with the transformed students?
