### sense in the lessons

In school, «Miss!» is how many pupils call a woman teacher; «missed school» means you were absent. In maths, «missing number» puzzles ask you to find the number that fits: 5 + ? = 12, so the missing number is 12 − 5 = 7. In feelings lessons, missing someone is normal when they move or die. Phrases: «miss out» (not get a chance), «near miss» (almost an accident), «hit and miss» (sometimes good, sometimes not).
