my teacher


Question Posted Wednesday November 28 2007, 1:05 am

My teacher is very annoying. One day, as soon as i came into the classroom, my teacher gave us cards and then she told us to go to the back of the room. If the card had a gold star, we would go into the front row. Anything without a star on it had to sit in the back. She said that the back row would get lower grades on their tests and they couldnt run (or vote ) for class presdient. So i got very mad. What should i do?

if you have to sit in the back are you the next row behind the gold stars, or all the way in the back of the room? if you are just behind them there is really nothing you can do, she just likes to feel in control because she is probably insecure about herself. but if you are really separated to the point where everyone without a star must be rows behind... than you have grounds to go to your headmaster, guidance counsiler, or principal about the matter. seriously. this is a type of discrimination.

You may be reading into this in a different way. She may have given cards without stars to people she may think were slacking or weren't trying hard enough. To be honest, I very much doubt it's going to be permanent, because people work better and work their way up. I'm guessing she's doing it to scare you, because there are only limited amount of seats at the front row.
If you really think you deserved a gold star on your card, you can either talk to her, or show her how fantastic you can work and behave in class.

Learn?

I cannot, nay I will not, believe your teacher is doing this for fun. It isn't fun for a teacher to have their students ticked off. It only makes their job harder.

She is making a point. She is trying to teach you something about the dynamics in a society where some people are disenfranchised for no good reason. Is this a world history class, a politics or civics class? You are there to learn something obviously. Don’t be so quick to write off your annoyance as her just being bitchy. It’s a lesson. If you can’t see the point for yourself, ask.

Maybe you stage a revolution, a protest, a take-over, a sit-in... that is what other people have done when they are unfairly denied rights...

You know what you should do? Prove your teacher wrong. If you sit in the back row often, try and find ways in which you can imporve your grades (such as revision cards, mind maps etc.) and get the grades which you deserve.
If your friends or people whom you get on with sit in the back often, try and help them out. Ask them what they do when they revise, and help them by intoducing the ways you revise to them and see if it helps them. Also, if your school has Learning Support, surgest that they go and ask how can they get better grades and they will get help. There's nothing to ashamed of if you have Learning Support.

Never ever feel down when the teacher says this, always try and find ways in which you (or your friends)can get better grades.

Good luck
