We all learn at a different pace and have different learning styles. That is way teaching kids to learn is hard.
Early in my career, I was a special education teacher and a co-teacher who worked within the inclusion model at the secondary school level. I became convinced that EVERY high school classroom needs to begin with RTI (Response To Intervention) Tier One, with differentiated teaching strategies, so that every student can learn.
In 2017, the general scientific consensus was that learning styles may not exist because there is not enough evidence to prove that they do.
One powerful strategy to accomplish this is by giving students a choice in how they answer questions or solve problems.
