Fires in the Bathroom Chapter 4 Quick Response

On page 66 when Diana is talking I noticed how she says teachers try to push “good” students more than “not-so-good” students. She mentions how they’ll lecture the straight A students but act like they expected it with the slackers.
This stood out to me more quite a bit because even though I know it is important to try and motivate all kids to learn and push them all equally, it is true about some kids. After about 2 or 3 weeks into the school year your going to know if certain kids are going to pass your class, and if they have just totally written you and your class off and don’t think it’s worth their time then yea I’m actually going to spend my time on a student who cares about their grades.
