I just came across this list of questions that should preoccupy teachers on Barry Smith’s blog and thought they were so useful that they might bear repeating:
What do my kids find hard? Why?
How can I teach differently so the hard bits become accessible?
How can I do that without dumbing down?
How can kids hide in my lessons?
How can I pre-empt the most common errors
