<p>Allll the time. It's really frustrating because I try SO hard but I just can't keep myself from drifting off. What people who consider it "disrespectful" don't understand is that it's BEYOND OUR CONTROL! </p>

how do teachers not care for you guys? wow, maybe my classes are just really small, but teachers know/dont like when students fall asleep

1) It's called being skilled and being really subtle. I sit in the front sometimes, and I have some strict teachers. It's ability and talent.</p>
<p>2) Some teachers don't care.</p>
<p>3) For some that do, they never care if I do it - most gave up after they already know that it's my tradition to sleep in class. </p>
<p>It's not like I sleep completely the whole period (I have those days, but then again), but short naps between unless it's notes/lectures (then it's the whole period). </p>
<p>I only fall asleep during a test 1/2 the time, though.</p>
<p>I never have. Yet. My brother sleeps in study hall all the time. School is just a really bad environment for sleeping. I'm never really tired during the day, so it's just easier to stay awake. I have better ways of zoning out during class than sleeping. That's how I perfected my handwriting.</p>
<p>Yeah, I fall asleep in class a lot. Mostly I just put my head down and close my eyes, but still listen, so when the teacher asks me a "caught you sleeping" question I can still answer it. My physics teacher is amazed at my ability to solve problems with my sweatshirt pulled over my head and my face planted on the lab table.</p>
<p>Sometimes I actually fall asleep, which isn't so good. Sophomore year history was like naptime.</p>
<p>ive fallen asleep in all my classes...
in physics i try not to fall asleep. but once a month ill sleep the whole entire class.
in photo....dude my teacher lets me do whatever i want. thats my nap time in school...
in spanish, i always fall asleep no matter how hard i try to wake up. my teacher does a good job keeping me awake.
in us history, i would sleep during the lectures...
in math...i try to stay awake but i end up sleeping the entire class...
and in english...english is a fun class so i hardly sleep there unless were reading some boring book...</p>
<p>so yeah, i sleep the whole time...
and Poseur, if u think ur notes r bad...wait till u see mine. its starts off nice, then it gets messy, then u see a wet blob (not joking haha kinda nasty)...</p>
<p>Sorry for no citations, but I heard somewhere that around 1 o'clock humans get naturally a little [or a lot] tired. Unfortunately, I've had math 7th period [1:20-2:05] every year, all four years of HS. Freshman and sophomore years I had loud teachers who forced me to pay attention, but last year and this year I have classic Charlie Brown wahwahwah teachers who just repeat what it says in the textbook, so I just read that when I'm doing the homework, and the homework teaches me how to do it for the test. [plus, the teachers never yell at me because I do so well on the tests]</p>
<p>I'm a pretty hard grader with first impressions, so during the first week or so of school I'll judge my teachers and see who's going to teach me and who's going to let the students walk all over them. Once a teacher loses my respect by not being able to control the class, not knowing the material well, or just from general disposition, I give up on the class and sleep whenever I feel like it.</p>
<p>rofl.
I sleep nod off every three seconds in English (1:18-2:00 PM) and 1st period (8:08-8:48) except i'm auditing and I haven't gone to class in like a quarter aka a whole month. </p>
<p>Sometimes I find myself really tired 2nd period when I go to 1st period (8:52-9:34). Yeah I tend to fall asleep in English its kind of boring...</p>
<p>I feel tired then I ponder about getting coffee and usually within the next three minutes adrenaline kicks in and I go to hyperactive mode.</p>
<p>I only really fall asleep in my English class. The room is nice and warm and always smells like maple sugar, we don't have many discussions, and the class is eighty minutes long.</p>
<p>Haha, it only happened to me once, I fell asleep while in the school's pool... I was REALLY tired that day, so standing up and falling asleep was easy.
That same day, I ALMOST fell asleep in Health, but I was just inattentive with my head down for a bit. Everyone thought I was sleeping though.</p>
<p>In U.S history I had this monotone teacher.
I swear he wants you to sleep in his class.
Anyways i would just fall asleep in his class then my elbow
would slip and I would bang my head on the desk.</p>
<p>I didn't do my homework once for my AP Chemistry class and the rest of the students were on a trip, so I tried falling asleep in the classroom before the teacher came in. Turns out I slept the whole period, and when I woke up I found the teacher sitting next to me doing some work. She let me sleep, and I didn't get caught.
This was a double period class. (hour and a half)</p>
<p>'MONOTONE' is a noun. 'MONOTONOUS' is an adjective. A person CAN be monotonous if he or she is boring and one-dimensional, but it is more likely that his or her VOICE is monotonous. That is all.</p>
