If so, this lady was definitely crazy and wanted a break from the kids. When I was tired of the kids, I'd have them read silently or write in their journals/activity books for a few minutes. Although not the best use of time, at least it was constructive. If they actually had to lie there for 45 minutes, this teacher should be supervised more often!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14493902973858125358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773246952965924566.post-20526984101012483842011-07-12T18:03:03.450-06:002011-07-12T18:03:03.450-06:00I work in a school district.

I believe that it is far better to have teachers like this who are using innovative ways to teach our children than to have the old beaten down teachers using the same slides (OK - probably not slides anymore - they probably made powerpoint presentations from their old slides) to teach the same boring lessons year after year after year.Barbarawrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01991827560269642769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773246952965924566.post-20293559111034277542011-07-02T17:45:11.017-06:002011-07-02T17:45:11.017-06:00If the kids were just told to lie down,thats fine ...If the kids were just told to lie down,thats fine i guess! But you know how fidgety the kids get and in such a case if the teacher scolded them not to move or do ANYTHING else, then thats wrong! Looking at the negative aspect, i would say 45 mins was too much! Probably the teacher herself wanted to take a 45 minute nap :pMehnaz Kapadiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07107856213134194267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773246952965924566.post-90290949460161042272011-06-30T19:45:15.016-06:002011-06-30T19:45:15.016-06:00I would have to say that I stand up for this teach...I would have to say that I stand up for this teacher. I think our kids are babied way too much and not understand what happens and how privileged they are. I have spent much time in 3rd world countries. One time in fact I traveled in side a Palestinian camp. They literally live on top each other. I have a sister in law who lives in one camp. She has a house that is les sq then a one bedroom here in Cali, it has 4 tiny rooms she has 6 kids, and they live on the lower floor, they get no sunlight because the houses are built next to one another, the windows open to a brick wall. The front door opens to the drainage ditch that carries all sorts of stuff and its not enclosed so you have to be careful not to fall in it. This is something they live in every day 24hrs a day, they have a curfew that they can’t leave the camp in times, no play grounds, no gardens and no sun its dark, wet and cramped. The sad thing is they have no choice in this at all. Because they are refuges they can’t live anywhere else’s but these camps. <br /><br />So to take 45 mins to show how cramped these slaves lived is just a few sec of what their lives went thru and as one person said they didn’t include all that the slaves had to endure. I think the parent is going overboard !!!<br /><br /><br /><br />aa_atwat@yahoo.comAmber or Asiyahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05217473286273317507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773246952965924566.post-40786509247983875632011-03-05T11:24:00.595-07:002011-03-05T11:24:00.595-07:00So it hits "close to home."

She needed to introduce seasickness and odors and buckets for bathrooms, maggots in the hard biscuits, and darkness for days on end. Now that would be realistic!<br /><br />Of course I would not approve of such actions; but I think having to lie still for a little while is okay.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03629132084441191734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773246952965924566.post-39014758981930499152011-02-15T18:52:57.114-07:002011-02-15T18:52:57.114-07:00I like your term 'overly dramatic'.

Now if she were screaming at them or saying she would absolutely not allow any bathroom breaks or something then I could understand how it was not o.k. <br /><br />But to be honest I think teachers are bullied way too much by parents to baby their kids.
