[quote=Anonymous]I was in a class just like this in fifth grade! It was too classes of nearly 30 students. The two classrooms were next to each other and instead of a dividing wall had a kind of temporary wall, so the teachers opened up the wall and one teacher taught us all math, and the other teacher taught us all English, etc. It clearly made their jobs easier -- the off teacher got to have prep time or personal time. One class sat at their desks and the other class sat on the floor at their feet. It was the most miserable school year of my life, and I was so unhappy my parents pulled me out in March. It was like being a cog in a factory. Nobody knew you, you had no rapport with the teachers or time to develop any with classmates (I was new to the school). Out of necessity, there was heavy emphasis on homework points sheets and behavior management. I was a good student and I hated it. I can't even imagine my ADHD kid in a similar scenario.[/quote]
