Jamie's Second hour is English 11. There are a lot of guys in this class, probably 25/30 and it seems to be a struggle to keep them under control. Jamie has a good style of keeping the kids in line by being quiet, threatening to send people out of the classroom and acting upset with the offending student. The kids respond right away. These seem to be good kids even if they are more rowdy than Schultz's 11th graders.
I guess Jamie isn't teaching Death of a Salesman, which is a shame. I would like the chance to compare her teaching style to Schultz's.
After a quiz, Jamie got the kids into a discussion on the play A Raisin in the Sun. They participate well and seem attentive, even if the ones in the front row are watching the TV announcements like a bunch of slack-jawed yokels.
