The upper panel shows a classroom scene where a paraprofessional who is standing directly behind a student seated in a wheelchair says to the classroom teacher, "Mark should stay inside after lunch. By the time I get his coat on recess will be over." The teacher responds, "That seems reasonable." A classmate who overhears says to the adults, "What if we just put his coat on backwards?" Another classmate says, "That would look weird." In the lower panel, the first classmate says, "Not if everyone wore their coat backwards." as the entire class surrounds their classmate seated in the wheelchair in solidarity by all wearing their coats backwards. The tag line reads, "Mrs. Basil's class invents Backwards Day at school."
