Teacher instruction accommodates learning styles and differences. Teachers choose instructional strategies based on sound practice and research. Instruction is developmentally appropriate. Curriculum is presented in a way that encourages problem solving and inquiry. Student choice is valued.
Assessment is on-going and guides instruction.
Children demonstrate their understanding through a variety of meaningful projects. Different children learn in different ways and at different rates. Instruction needs to support individual children's strengths and match their needs. Instruction must include all sensory modalities, so that learners have the opportunity to hear, see, say, feel and do in order to learn.
