How can I support the diverse needs of learners?

Using multiple approaches in our instruction and multiple options throughout the project. Students learn in a vast variety of ways. It is important to allow learners to display their understanding in a variety of ways also. What works for one student will not always work for the next. Making accommodations for students with disabilities and supplying ELL students with additional resources also supports their individual learning needs.
