Infos

When students repeatedly lose track of directions or take a long time to solve problems, it's easy for teachers to see the distracted or off-task behaviour, but not always to see the root of the problem. Quite often the same child who has an underdeveloped skill may have an opposing but hidden strength: a slow processor of information may also be a deep thinker.Teaching to Every Kid's Potential is an invitation to teachers to improve the learning in their classrooms, one student at a time, using practical, evidence-based strategies. Focusing on four big concepts from neuroscience-flexibility, readiness, connection and masking-the author shows how to apply them to build on the strengths of students. Each chapter unpacks the science; shows how talents can compensate for neural processing issues; includes the story of a real-life individual who embodies such talents; and suggests small but powerful adjustments to classroom practice that will allow kids' gifts to emerge.
