My daughter just started 5th grade on thursday. on friday she all ready made 2 kids cry and my daughter feel like crying. She made my daughter tremble!!! She threatend to give my daughter zeros just because she didn't hear her name when she called her up to show her her work. In the after noon when 1 person didn't follow directions they all had to right "I will learn how to follow directions" over and over again for an HOUR! And if any of them made any noise they would have to write for an extra ten minutes. When my daughter went into her binder to get a piece of loose leaf paper and closed the binder and it snapped she had to right an extra 10 mins. Once she even said _____ is staring at her paper, another 10 minutes". what should i do. Thins is crazy. Whe live in nj can u tell me if that is illegal. My daughter is also in the gifted and talented program so i dont know why talented kids should be treated that wy. HELP!
