Schools and masks
I taught/supervised an 8th grade writing class where 3-4 boys didn't want to work. Okay.
But those 3-4 boys were bored because they weren't working and couldn't use their phones. Okay.
And those 3-4 boys got restless and started to actively distract others from working. Not okay.
And they began to actively "sneeze" and "cough" for attention. Not okay.
And in NJ, in schools, masks aren't mandatory anymore. And these jokers are spreading whatever with the coughing and sneezing. Seriously not okay.
Sooooooo . . . . . I called the Principal who came right up to my classroom and he removed them. I believe they were doing the classwork in his office without the coughing and sneezing antics.
New protocol for new situations.
