Ms. Foster’s class: Ms. Foster believes that students should help to make the classroom rules. The class votes on such rules as whether they can chew gum in class, leave their seats whenever they want, speak without raising their hands, and wear hats in class. Students also vote on punishments for breaking the rules.
Ms. Kobe’s class: Ms. Kobe sets the rules for the class. The rules are quite strict. Students may not chew gum or eat in class. They cannot leave their seats unless they raise their hands and ask permission. No hats are allowed. Students may not talk when Ms. Kobe is giving a lesson. Ms. Kobe also has strict punishments.
