...that the kids talked a lot, but that they DID do the work and were cooperative with each other and with me. In other words, they might get quiet briefly but wouldn't stay quiet for any length of time. However, the talking did not interfere with making progress in class, and I was not given "attitude" when I asked for quiet. Typical of many second grade classes (they are just SO social at that age!) and some others. This is in CONTRAST to the classes (usually 5th grade or older) who not only will NOT SHUT UP for long enough to do the lunch count, much less give directions for the assignment, but are rude to me and each other. A quiet class is a pleasure, but I can work with a chatty class if they are cooperative. I think some teachers have a higher "chat tolerance" than others, too.
