I teach science and my year 9 class are driving me mad. Interrupting every 2 minutes to complain that they don’t get it, or it’s “boring”
Tore a strip off them in the end, explaining that the reason they don’t get it is due to the constant interruptions during teaching. And yes Jocasta (not her real name) sometimes things are boring. Ionic bonding is not a laugh a minute, but you are just going to have to suck it up and do the work.
Anyone have any advice. I think this lot have spent the whole of lock down plugged into an XBox or YouTube. They have no attention span, claim they can’t read two lines of text and are generally driving me mad.
