Patience and understanding are crucial for teachers of below average students. The teacher could teach at a little slower pace for these students. Slowing down may help these students to better grasp the information. The teacher could make notes for the below average students to follow along with and fill in the blanks instead of having to write all of the notes. An average student is one who has an IQ level that is neither above average or below average.
Average students are neither gifted, nor below average.
Many of the students in a regular classroom fall into this category. If a child is struggling in one subject or area, there may be a need to alter their curriculum slightly. Giving the student a little extra work to help them to learn the information. If you teach students things that they don't know already, they will be more interested in learning. Average students can be sent to the resource room if they are having trouble in a certain subject that they need extra help on.
