what grade level?
By Jalon

Clip to ScrapBook   
Just wondering what grade level you teach! I notice the same thing with my 4th graders, but it seems to be something that exists at all grades! I think TV and video games has a lot to do with inattentiveness. I try to
think waaaaaaaaaaaay back when I was in elem. school (the mid-late 60's!!LOL ) and honestly can't remember all the whispering, looking around, fidgeting, etc. There was some, but for the most part we sat in our seats quietly and got down to business.

One thing that drives me nuts is students playing with things...pencils, erasers, or whatever, especially mechanical pencils!
Our supply list even specifically states NO mechanical pencils. If I see them, I confiscate them. So many play with the lead, change the lead, drop the lead, etc. Agggggh. Sorry, I digress.... :)
