Thanks, all! As it turned out, we did the right thing by doing nothing but having a discussion with DG about it...I suppose I could've really made a mess of it if I'd have pushed back about it.

100 minutes of sitting and listening -- is this teacher gnuts? Oh, well. Coaching DG how to behave in class may pay off.

Wow, that sounds like a pretty harsh sentence for answering a question pertaining to the subject. That teacher needs to loosen up a bit! And I agree with you about the block scheduling thing -- I can't imagine expecting 7th graders to sit still and focus on a single subject for that long!

the teacher seems to have a little ego issue, maybe?...tell dancergirl she can be one of the tough kids now...;) the idea of her in trouble just seems wrong...middle school is bad
