In the following excerpt, Mr. Kline teaches ninth-grade English and has a reputation for strictness: late work earns zeros, phones are confiscated without warning. During a class discussion, a student named Jada raises her hand and begins to speak, then stops, blinking rapidly. A few students snicker. Mr. Kline looks at the clock, then at the lesson plan clipped to his clipboard. He sets the clipboard down, walks to the window, and lifts the blinds slowly, as if checking the weather. "Take a minute," he says to the room without looking at Jada. The snickering fades into the hum of the lights. What does Mr. Kline's setting down the lesson plan and creating a pause most strongly reveal about him?
