[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My question is how do you know this much about the teacher? How do you find out what "tone" the teacher uses. We are at a new public school this year and my second grade son "hates" it. I wish I felt like the teacher was helping him with his transition. I figured we just have to give it time, but I really wish there was some way for me to figure out what kind of teacher he has. Asking my son for info is liking pulling teeth and I work full-time so it is not easy for me to volunteer during the day. I guess as the year goes on, you just start to get a better idea of how the teacher works. [/quote]

I knew about the teacher's tone of voice early on because DD kept saying that she had a "mean voice."  Then I heard it myself one day when I was in carpool line and I was kneeling down behind the car door, tending to my baby and the teacher couldn't see me.  I heard a little boy walking along with his teacher telling her a long, cute story.  Then I heard the teacher snarl at him in the meanest, angriest voice telling him to stop talking so much.  I looked up and it was DD's teacher.[/quote]
