I had a class of very difficult students. It wasn’t just my class! It was every class these students were in. I struggled to keep them engaged and forcing them to do work. I was going to be observed. They were used to admin coming to all their classes for them. I didn’t want them to think they were in trouble. So I told them that admin was coming for me. That period they all came with open notebooks - total attention- asked questions! admin left I asked-? They said we didn’t want u fired
