What can parents and teachers do to ensure that kids have a complete apple pie?
First and foremost, the adults in the student’s life need to provide a positive, safe, and supportive environment. They need to understand the nature of the students learning difficulties and which pieces of the pie are missing or fragmented in order to provide appropriate instruction and classroom accommodations. The goal is to have students’ learning, our teaching, and parents’ contributions in apple pie order. It is the responsibility of the adults in their world to ensure that students have the necessary ingredients and then are shown how to put them together to produce a complete pie to guarantee student success. Success enhances motivation to continue to learn and leads to increased competency and self-esteem.
