Ok persoanlly, I really hate it when I see/hear teachers yelling at students, especially primary students.
I'm not a teacher, but obvisouly I am a parent, and I dont yet at Claire (she;s only 2 though). I've never yelled at her and I hope I never have to. I feel that by yelling, you are escalating the situation beyond where it really needs to go. I mean kids can be really testing, especially 9-10 year olds, and yeah yelling does get them to sit up and pay attention and get the idea that they're doing the wrong thing.. but seriously, if I heard my kids techer yelling alot, I would serisouly be really annoyed and unimpressed. I just dont think its appropriate and to an extent it would sort of say to me that that teacher does not have good control of her class.
Just my opinion though! As i said, I dont have a school aged child.
