First Day

The first day of class was really intresting and different, I walked in not expecting to get the greeting that I normally get, a hand shake from my teacher. I expected it to be like all my other classes, walk in, sit down, greetings and introductions to the class. But instead everyone was greeted with a handshake. The handshake wasnt like how my other teachers have greeted me before, but it was nice because it was a more personal greeting. After everyone was situated the class got silent and we got a 5 minute silent treatment from our teacher.At first, I was confused and wondering why my teacher was just sitting down, drinking his water, and staring at all of us. The room was silent, it was a little awkward at first. Some of my classmates began questioning why he was being silent and started observing what he was doing. We all came to realize that he was observing us as we were observing him. Overall class was very intresting.

  1. Now after a few more days and some more readings, why do you think your teacher gave you the silent treatment??? I am pretty sure I was doing for more than just the opportunity to observe you guys, but I was trying to quietly learn as much as I could, that is true.
