, with attendees at Beyoncé’s concert competing for the unofficial title of being the quietest crowd during her performance of “Energy.”the thousands in the crowd all freeze, with the goal of achieving silence in the stadium. After a pause of several seconds, Beyoncé resumes the song.
Later, she shared a video of her class successfully completing the mute challenge, and it went viral. Now, the mute challenge has morphed into a tool for teachers to get their classroom’s attention, all while having fun and sharing a bit of their authentic selves with their students. Following their viral moment, Drummond says she uses the mute challenge often in her classroom. Students take the moment seriously.
"Not that I'm trying to be a cool teacher, but I do want to be a teacher relatable to my students," she says."Just to show them that it's OK to have fun, even in the classroom." She also has several T-shirts showing that she “doesn’t play about this woman” — one that says “Teach-oncé” and another that proclaims, “I’m the Beyoncé of this school.”
“When I was growing up ... elementary and middle school, I didn’t have Black teachers like that,” she says. “It’s a hard field.”
