h to hear random chatter, by a teacher. That is exactly what Miss Ferenzci did. On the first day she followed some of Mr. Hibler's schedule. When math class was in session, she completely ignored a wrong answer to a multiplication problem. When told by another student that she had agreed with a wrong answer, she said sometimes in higher mathematics it was that answer. The student continued arguing, and she told the student to consider it a "substitute fact" (Kriszner&Mandell; 248). She said that it didn't hurt anybody, so it was fine. I highly disagree with student's minds being opened by being told false answers, especially in mathematics that is very solid subject. Steps need to be followed precisely in math to find the answer.
During lunch on the first day, Miss Ferenczi ate her lunch with the class. She was asked why by a student, and she replied "I talked with the other teachers before class this morning. There was a great rattling of the words for the fewness of ideas. I didn't care for their brand of hilarity. I don't like ditto machine jokes"(Kriszner&Mandell; 249). First off, this is very unusual for an adult teacher to not go to the teacher's lounge for lunch. What she stated was very cocky, like she was on a higher level of thought from the other teachers. It was actually funny to read, but it shows her unconventional style. During the lunch break, the students noticed her food, and one of them asked if it actually was food. Now this is something she told the 4th graders, that I do agree with. "It most certainly is food. It's a stuffed fig. I had to drive almost down to Detroit to get it. I also bought some smoked sturgeon" (Kriszner&Mandell; 249). She also tells the students that she also has raw spinach that she cleaned that morning before coming to the school. Miss Ferenczis lunch was healthy, full of protein, vitamins, and nutrients. Her lunch was way ...
