Know what's in my ss heads

The most dangerous word a teacher can use is "they", as in "they enjoyed the class" or "they understood the material".
There shoudl be no such thing as a geberal "they".  Innstead the focus should be on each and every individual learner: "What did Maria learn?  What did Pedro have trouble with?".

Of course every teacher thinks that they've answered that question only to find nasty surprises when deadlines and tests come around and they find that not all of "them" do well.

I'm no exception.

This term I vow to try harder to do better: to be more aware of what's going on in every student's head at every minute of every lesson.

Impossible, you say?  Teachers do at least six impossible things every day!
