Kevin’s teacher, Mr. Madison, allows students to eat snacks in the classroom as long as they stay on task. Today Mr. Madison is sick, so the class has a substitute teacher. Kevin is eating his apple when the substitute walks up to him and says sarcastically, “I didn’t know it was snack time”. What is the substitute thinking? How does Kevin feel? What should Kevin do?
The substitute might be thinking that Kevin is being disrespectful/not following rules. Kevin might be embarrassed or frustrated. He could explain that Mr. Madison allows them to snack if they are on task but if the substitute won't allow it - Kevin should put his snack away.
