teaching style. (Still image from provided video)
Onscreen, the children are singing, dancing, smiling, laughing. They high-five one another while reciting the “whole-brain rules” in Janet Burke’s third grade class:
Raise your hand for permission to speak.
Raise your hand for permission to leave your seat.
Make smart choices.
Keep your dear teacher happy.
Follow directions quickly.
Cooperation…
