[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is ridiculous to cut down / cut out talking at lunch. What is wrong with the public school system? Kids DO NOT come first in this scenario and that lame excuse that talking keeps them from eating is a ruse to make it seem as if the students' nutrition is REALLY what the concern is here. [/quote] There are teachers on this board who say they have never experienced this, so obviously some schools are able to manage with the talking.[/quote] Agreed! I ask teachers to truly ask themselves if they are doing what's easy or thinking outside of the box to do what's right for the kids. The job takes a lot of energy and it is an honorable profession in my opinion because kids today need teachers who can model how to be respectful, responsible, and be social/good communicators. Because the job is difficult does not give anyone a free pass to make up rules that are not in the best interest of children. I certainly hope there are no assigned seats for lunch in the teachers lounge or silent time... [/quote]
