Introduction Through my education in the education profession, the most essential thing about creating effective lessons and curriculum that I have learned is that not all students learn the same way because they are not the themselves. This idea extends to all forms of education and circumstances. In each classroom, several groups of students can be observed writing down every word from the teacher's mouth, scribbling on notebook pages, catching up on other homework, and nonchalantly trying to nap. I am a kinesthetic and visuospatial learner. I make connections with information through doing and seeing. If I were to craft my entire lesson plan with deeply ingrained models and examples that fit my learning style, students with other intelligences would fall apart like I do during lessons. Learning is not listening and holding back. Learning is creative, meaningful, open-ended, lively and passionate. The classroom must extend beyond the four walls of the school and become a safe community for students to live in. I believe that regardless of where a school is located or what reputation it leverages, a teacher should be able to provide the same amazing learning experience for their students. Most students who attend urban schools are minorities and come from low-income families. A sad but relevant truth about the education system is that attending an urban school creates a handicap for students' education. To close this educational gap, it is necessary to address students' needs with high-quality education that plays to students' strengths and further develops their weaknesses. Differentiated instruction maximizes learning for all students at every level. By...... middle of paper ......I hope to highlight diversity rather than suppress differences in students. I also hope to utilize the resources available in the embedded community. It is essential to incorporate service projects and local community projects into the curriculum in order to create civic responsibility in students. Differentiated instruction is specifically tailored to meet the needs of individual students. This includes classroom management, student grouping, environment, assessments, adjustments, and all other aspects of a student's life. To be successful, full teacher involvement is needed to proactively plan various approaches to accommodate how students learn. Every student will feel valued and be more involved in the class. Differentiating instruction for students who feel a connection to the material will create even more excitement for learning.
