What will be an ideal response?
Answer: Answers will vary, but responses should include the fact that if permanent expectations (based on a previous year's performance or on daily classroom performance) are formed, they will be communicated in various ways. Some of these ways may not be positive, as shown by various sources; teachers may be less friendly, demand less academically, pay less attention, call on less in class, or give more criticism and less positive feedback.
