Meet Me in the Middle: Chapter 7

The name of this chapter really sums up how I feel about education in general ; fitting the lesson to the learner. For too long I feel education has been approached in a cookie cutter way where each student is expected to adhere to one form of teaching. If the student does not learn in that specific method, they're immediately considered non-compliant. I love the idea of differentiated instruction and it's all inclusive way of reaching students. This chapter was a complete throwback to Practicum. Once again, I was able to think about students in their individual needs and ways to meet those specifications within my classroom.
