• Wanneer de docent aan het woord is ben je stil
• Je steekt je vinger op wanneer je iets te zeggen hebt. Dus je schreeuwt ook niet de hele tijd: Meneer, meneer!
• Meestal (Bijna altijd) staat op het bord of in de opdracht wat je moet doen en waar je het kan vinden --> kijk eerst op het bord of lees de vraag en stel dan pas je vraag.....
• Je spreekt mij aan met meneer Kerskes!
• Je gooit NIKS door de klas heen. Als je iets wilt geven vraag je dat eerst...
