1. Why do you expect it to be a necessity when you didn’t even do it in English lol

2. context

3. Address your students as みなさん

   皆さん、ちゃんと勉強してくださいね

4. You can preface with “everyone” or, for one or a few people, by name.

   Also – if I were to announce to my class “Study for the test,” it’s obvious that it’s a general command.

5. From my understanding, there is no way to say anything in plural in japanese. Unless I’m wrong
