“It is virtually impossible for a
teacher to work effectively with
classroom families until he or
she is able to empathize with
them. Every family truly stands

•Use different types of instruction and teaching strategies. Techniques like project-based
learning, differentiated instruction and blended learning all allow teachers to help learners
with different needs.
•Create opportunities for all students to contribute. Within groups, have students take on
different roles that fit their strengths. Some students can act as note takers, while others
can facilitate the conversation. (Prodigy Education)
