Content: Plan for Differentiation
Every student is different. They come with their own unique personalities and needs. Teachers must continuously think about their students, and how they can help each one. It takes a lot of time and effort to accurately tailor their lessons to accommodate each student’s strengths and weaknesses. Review Instructional Strategies
Instructional strategies are a critical component of effective teaching. New instructional strategies are being developed all the time. Teachers must familiarize themselves with a wide variety of strategies to meet each of their student’s needs. Strategies that work well for one student or class may not necessarily work for another. Shop for Classroom Activities and/or Student Needs
Many teachers invest hundreds to thousands of dollars out of their own pocket for materials and supplies for their classroom every year. They also purchase materials such as clothing, shoes, and food for needy students.
