@ashley_ott1 True. You don't want students thinking there is only one way they learn.

[Justin Ferrell @JustinFerrell11]

Be aware of different ways students learn, but don't label your students as only learning a certain way. #545RRchat

[Justin Ferrell @JustinFerrell11]

There are cultural and gender differences in learning style, but each child is unique and has their own preferences. #545RRchat

Instead of grouping by "ability," teachers should group by "readiness." #545rrchat
