[quote=Anonymous][quote]Cut loose at lunch time?!! Have you been in the school,cafeteria at lunch time when the entire place is "cut loose"? Don't get me wrong, it should not be a silent lunch. Kids need to talk. They don't need to be yelling to kids at other tables or shouting out. Cafeteria management begins with set norms for the entire school of expectations that are then reinforced by the classroom teachers. I don't mean by the teachers themselves in the cafeteria, they need their break, but by class rules and norms that have been set into place ahead of time. I have seen assigned seats on occasion, as needed per class. Class discussions on this should be occurring. Management still needs to occur so students can talk, not be "cut loose". [/quote] Agree. And, remember, in lots of schools lunch is very short and if the kids talk too much, they don't eat. It can be a true circus if allowed to get out of control.[/quote]
