Addressing a Team Practice

[rockyroad]

How the heck did math problems get involved in this conversation??? I am a Middle School teacher - I teach 7th and 8th grade Math and History classes. Ask any of my students, and they will tell you that I am very demanding and have very high expectations of them - academically and behaviorally. I also am not fool enough to think that I can walk into their PE classes and give them a lecture for 60 minutes without having LOTS of disruptive behavior...the kids at that practice will be there to run around and practice basketball...try to sit them down and give them a lengthy discourse on rules and you WILL lose them after 10-15 minutes...come to my open gym time and try to give the adults there a lecture and you WILL lose us in about 5 minutes...they are there to play...don't be an *** and demand things from the coach...take the time allotted and give the best 15 min. presentation you can!!
