[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can ask to have your child removed for the movies. They will sit in the office or in the hall. This is what we do. I email the teachers and principal to remind them to please remove them from the class which has a movie. If they have nowhere for them to go, they can call me. [/quote] Sitting in the hall or office was a punishment when I was a kid. Because you disapprove of his teacher’s choice of activity as being not sufficiently academic, you’re insisting they punish your child by isolating him where he still won’t be receiving any more instruction than his peers (and possibly less if the films are educational). To rework an old analogy, you’re cutting off your child’s nose to spite the teacher’s face. I really don’t think it will affect the teacher’s movie habits, other than she may pity your child or resent you. [/quote] They’re not even supposed to be put in the hallway anymore. At least in ES, they are unsupervised. (Teacher)[/quote]
