This is a picture of students at the Jiading Experimental Primary School. Notice the perfect posture of the students, they have incredible discipline.
The fact that they could sit in class with their arms behind their back the entire time really surprised me.
I can't imagine students in the US being so engaged as the students we observed in Shanghai.
I couldn't believe how well behaved the children were, they even stood up and greeted their teacher when he walked in the classroom. I dont know how much of this was due to our presence or if it was indicative of behavior in schools across the country.
