Two boys are discussing the events from the previous night's junior high football game. T taps on their desks and asks them if they are ready to present first today. Final bell rings and the intercom clicks on. The daily announcements are read out loud and T tells students to quiet down and pay attention. Television turns on and Channel One program begins.
Students listen attentively and sing along with the commercials.
They answer trivia question at the end of the program correctly. They can relate to the young anchors better than regular news anchors. T asks the students their opinions on Senator Glenn's being included in the space mission. Students are allowed to give their opinions on several occasions everyday. I am glad the teacher grants them this privilege because they feel they can be heard.
