My teaching style is very student centered. I cater to my students by 1) scaffolding instruction to meet the different needs of my students and 2) using content that they are curious about. The Common Core State Standards require students to have certain skills and perform certain tasks, but it doesn't specify how students need to get there. Therefore, I find resources that my students are interested in to teach them reading skills or to have them solve word problems about. Let's make learning fun and relevant for students!
