I work with early childhood, and have tried this method. Your legs go numb because they need help for longer than a minute. However, I do make a conscious effort to avoid the scenario pictured here. I remember hating when my teachers did this.
at least you are trying but you can always pull up a chair if you need to
remeber every time you squat you save a student from looking at something they rather did not want to
True. But it looks bad if you are sitting and your boss (principal) walks in to do a quick eval. Silly, but it does. It's also hard to sit in a room full of 30 little kids because so many need your help. You have to move around a ton. I'll keep squatting. It's only making my butt look better.
at least that teacher would help you. Our math teacher, the teacher of the class that everybody strugglles in leaves us to work on khan academy and occasionally passes out handbooks that just tell us the different ways to do things we already know... Smh
