What a gifted writer - Terry Heick! I can see why he is now an English teacher. All of us at one time or another in our past schooling were taught the concept of 'audience.' Who is going to listen to me? Who is going to read this? What is important to that person? Why should I be the person communicating? All of these reflective questions are the basis of Heick's article. As teachers we need to be reminded that the students we see every day are our audience. Are we reaching them? How can we tell?
