If the red light is on the board that means everyone is listening!

Directions from a teacher
When others are talking
Lessons directed by teachers
Red Light-Listen

7. Red Light Questions…
If you have a question when a red light is on, please raise your hand. If your hand is raised I know you need to ask a question
Do not talk to a friend, because this distracts others and both get put on the spot.
