Wrong!!!! DPI & SACS do NOT want to see this during an inspection! No orderly reows of students. They want syudents doing cooperative learning in centers or pods. They don't want quiet classrooms. They don't want teachers....they want facilitators. One 7th grade boy asked me "Ms. Cox, why do they put us in groups?? They know we're just gonna talk." kid is smarter than the Dept of Public Instruction!!!!

I don't know what DPI and SACS are, but I taught in a classroom where you vary lectures and group learning for which I got training at Stanford. There is usually one facilitator in a group that is a student. I monitored the kids closely so they didn't get off task, but they learned to monitor themselves as they were on a time limit. My students just didn't "talk." If teachers aren't trained for this type of instruction, maybe the kids do just talk. I also evaluated other classrooms for this type of learning, and the kids were usually on task.

DPI Dept of Public Instruction SACS Southern Accreditation Students are to actively engaged. We just went through the accreditation process. One of the things we were told is that did not want to visit quiet classrooms. Students should be collaborating & talking. Technology should be in use by multiple students. We are using the Daily Five. Students move from center to center daily. At least once a week the teacher conferences with the student in reference to his progress. We don't even have desks. I am in NC.

Most elementary grades do well in this atmosphere but you cannot expect it to be suddenly thrust upon middle schoolers & expect them to do well. You also have to consider the backgrounds & "area" you are in. Our county is extremely low income, the average IQ is low, & they come from homes where little to no parenting or training is taking place. Seventh grade boys who can't stay awake b/c he was up all night feeding & changing his baby sister while his "mother" partied. The socio-economic background plays into how classrooms should be structured. Our students did well in classrooms with set routines but fell apart when allowed to make their own choices.

Ann, I truly wish it was the old Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic. I work in the public school system & at a community college so I see the end results. Dropouts that cannot read above an elementary level or do long division. Forget knowing the multiplication tables....they feel students shouldn't memorize. Somethings have to be memorized, everything can't be fun & games. The college has high school grads that test lower than the lowest college remediation class (below 5th grade skills)and are sent to special classes. They can't enroll until they improve their skills & test into college level remediation. And Coomon Core is only going to make things worse. I worry.......

a classroom I visited recently, had 4 desks facing each other in orderly groups, in orderly rows! These children came in and sat in their chairs, quietly and waited for their teacher to give instructions. Apparently they got to the end of the line going out the door if they didn't obey his rules! The year before during Ag Day, they had stuff stolen from their desks so they turned them around so that the open part was on the inside of the quad, then they neatly placed their chairs on top of the desks and lined up anti-alphabetically, to leave the room for the first demonstration while another class came in to see what I was doing.

Looks just like my classroom except we all wore uniforms and the boys had to be on one side and girls on the other. We had to march in a line in and out, say "Good Morning Sister" all together and raise our hand to talk. If we were BAD we sat on the window seal, had our gum put on our nose and had to stay after to erase the boards or write 100 times what we did BAD. We sat like this from 8 to 3 every day with 45 minutes for lunch if we had 5 cents for milk it was a real treat. My pencil was so short my fingers hurt to hold it ... we brought our own supplies and tried to make them last all year.

Most all females wore skirts and dresses back then, and especially to school (though after school, we changed into slacks or shorts), so it wasn't really considered a big deal. Dresses and skirts then were long enough that sitting and not showing anything wasn't that big of a problem. Plus, girls were taught to sit properly.

It's always nice to see a woman or a girl in a pretty dress. I guess I'm old fashioned in that way. When it comes to fashions (especially women's) I'm still stuck in the 1950s and earlier...

In my parochial school classroom in the 50's the girls sat on one side of the room and the boys the other. If a student misbehaved they had to sit on the opposite side of the room. Orderly I'd say.

How wonderful that the girls are dressed appropriately and boys are clean and smiling instead of sneering with their paws on iphones.

our classrooms at Holy Family church in Brooklyn, New York were exactly the same, the desks, the very large windows, the hight ceilings..and beneath each window was a four foot radiator to keep the room warm during winter...a lot of eager faces there ...looks so willing to learn...

It was 1967 before the Florida high school I went to (I graduated in '66) allowed girls to wear slacks, but only in cold weather (yes, it does get that cold in Florida sometimes!)

Sorry, but I just noticed that there is only one African-American child in the class, with a big grin, sitting on the far right in the front. Just curious since this was the time of segregation in our great nation.

I want to build a place where my son can meet his great-grandparents. My grandmother Marian Joyce (Benning) Kroetch always wanted to meet her great-grandchildren, but she died just a handful of years before my son's birth. So while she didn't have the opportunity to meet him, at least he will be able to know her. For more information about what we're building see About AncientFaces. For information on the folks who build and support the community see Daniel - Founder & Creator.
My father's side is full blood Sicilian and my mother's side is a combination of Welsh, Scottish, German and a few other European cultures. One of my more colorful (ahem black sheep) family members came over on the Mayflower. He was among the first to be hanged in the New World for a criminal offense he made while onboard the ship.
