  26. John Weisbrod Interview PJ Jacobs Jr High English Teacher

  27. “I think classroom management roots itself in who we are as people and how we think about those around us.” “There really is no "classroom management" that supersedes connecting on a personal level with the students--and they recognize that.” “Any student who may ‘act out’ has a reason for that.  As frustrating as it may be, it is our responsibility to uncover that reason and try to help.  You won't be able to fix everything, but you can try.” “Junior high students also need structure, predictability, consistency, and routine... but mostly love.”
