[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 305253, member: 3444"] Marg, I realize the iPod's not the real problem, but I was trying to get at the issue of a physical education teacher that is not doing ANYTHING with her students except having them sit for the hour, without sounding like the problem is her. Especially since I don't know WHY on earth they aren't doing anything during her class period and didn't want to assume the problem was her. It's a brand new highschool that still has construction going on, so maybe they don't have all their equipment yet? I don't know. I have seen other students running along the road during this class time (obviously not her class) so I know that other PE teachers have found something for their students to do! These are highschool kids, and they really should be using that time more constructively if she doesn't have or can't think of anything for them to do. And since it's the last period of the day, if she can't even have them do homework, then maybe she should just release them to go home -- 'cuz I can think of LOTS of things to do with my difficult child! :D I already told him that he shouldn't need an afterschool break if he's spent the last hour just listening to music! He didn't like that thought at all! :p [/QUOTE]
