I would not deal with 35 students in a class, but I do deal with
throwing clay.
On day one it is explained that throwing clay means being sent out of class
until everyone is done with clay. I have 24 years of written assignments
with Scholastic Art magazines. I work it out before hand with the assistant
principle and the offender goes to ISS for the remaining days. I only
had to
use this one time this year.
