Not a sleeping teacher...but after having introduced OST to a group of 250 highschoolstudents, teachers, social workers, mediatore, policemen, politicians...I took a nap pretty much in view of everyone around noon in the main room...just about that time a group was very busy working on a conflict (a German girl and an immigrant girl had gotten over a fight involving a particular boy getting their friends involved and causing considerable turmoil)...one of the teachers woke me attacking me and scolding me for not giving attention....while this was taking place, things were already calming down again....as I pointed this out to the teacher, she still complained about me not interfering.... its a tough life greetings from Berlin mmp
