Activities
at our school this spring have focused on narrowing the achievement
gap. Based on research regarding how the brain
learns, as well as how to address diversity in the classroom,
teachers have included teaching strategies such as bilingual
presentations, hands-on activities, technology assisted learning,
and learning incentive systems.
