48. Bonobo.. you could turn this teacher's...
career around.

Lots of times, teachers get tired... or lazy. Young ones don't have much experience, or don't have a big "bag of tricks" accumulated over the years. Old ones get tired and just want to assign the kids some quiet project that will give them a chance to rest for a minute without 15 kids pulling at them.

Talk to this teacher quetly, and share your concerns. Suggest an activity that would interest the kids and get them working.

I've never taught the younger grades, but even my jaded high school seniors were led into all kinds of discussions and projects by things like this map.
