I think independent work looks like a class full of quiet students with their heads down looking at their worksheets while the teacher is sitting in his/her chair looking over the class and stopping to help kids who need help.

I had my multiplication sheet on my desk before lunch and when I came back it was gone. IT DISAPERED😱. So my mom is just giving me sheets of work like 462x8 or 79x11 and yeah is that ok because if I do that at least I'm getting SOME work done

Yay mom!! Go Grumpy! Remember Grumpy, I also said you could create your own practice questions and check the answer with your calculator. Next time when you know you don't have your homework to take home, just ask me and I will get you another.

I think independent work looks like sitting quietly doing your work not being asked to be quiet and if you have a question raise your hand.

I think independent work looks like not talking or maybe a little bit. Doing your work and not getting distracted.

Well thanks Flame, Blue Whale, Paris Lover, Trollfayce, Diamond Pickaxe, Mickey and Bugs it sounds like you know what independent work looks and sounds like. You can remind the others tomorrow so there won't be any confusion next French class.

Yes, they have all good understanding. I believe next french class will be much better than what you heard this week. Also sometimes people misinterpret things like inn the game telephone so maybe it was not as bad as you might have heard

Well Chuck...I did hear directly from the source. At any rate, it sounds like you are understanding how to work more effectively and respectfully next time.

I think independent work is when all students are working and not talking or moving constantly that is my opinion on independent work.

I think independent working is being quiet and listening to the teacher.

I agree, but there's more to it then just being quiet. If you want to talk, you have to raise your hand, etc.

Bug i think independent work is more than just working by yourself but its also a big part of responsibility when you are helping yourself. Independent work means not only doing work by yourself but helping yourself independently. Self responsibility is Independency. The End

Thanks everyone! It really sounds like you all have a good idea of what independent work looks, sounds and feels like. I really like how Grumpy included words like 'responsibility' and 'helping yourself' instead of asking others 'how to spell a word' or what the directions were.
