The Blackboard Jungle

The Blackboard Jungle: "That is my biggest fear now - that my ability to control a classroom will be limited not by my high pitched squeeky voice or my diminutative size but instead by the fact that I have nothing to say that will interest them. I can control this to some extent by preparing lessons but I am afraid that when they say 'But Miss, what's the POINT!' that I may crumble and confess yes, that they are right, they will never find a use for quadratic equations/logarithms/3D trigonometry."
