LOL Anne, funny you should mention this! Just yesterday I had a note left by the grade 2 teachers saying just that. "Chatty but well behaved". Oh man, they were pretty bad. They couldnt watch a video without chatting ,bothering each other, moving around,yelling SHHHHH every two minutes etc. I had to turn the video off, send them back to their seats and have a very firm chat about proper behavior. I gave them one more chance, started the video again, and they lasted about 15 minutes before I had to stop again. For good. They were constantly telling each other what to do, standing up and lecturing the whole class on behavior. There were a few students that clearly "ruled the roost" and would literally stand up in front of everyone and start yelling at them to be quiet. Oddest class I have ever had. They were more like 6th graders. On 5/09/08, Anne wrote: > I have subbed for several teachers now who in the sub notes > say their kids are "good but talkative or chatty".
