The beginning of the school year can be one of the hardest times because the students likely don't trust you yet. Once that trust is earned, it is much easier to get to know, teach, and feel connected to the student. Until the trust is earned, success on academic tasks can be unlikely.

A second element that gives students ownership of their learning is making sure that the learning fits the student.
Fit suggests that we ask students to do only what they are ready to do. If work is consistently beyond a student's reach, that student becomes more occupied with escaping possible danger or humiliation than with learning.

Trust is very important!! Especially in Special Education. If the student do not trust teacher, the teacher shouldn't expect the student to learn. Building trust with your students should be one of the first things you establish in your classroom.

Differentiation instruction is student-aware teaching. It is guided by the premise that schools should maximize student potential, not simply bring students to an externally established norm on a test.

Further, differentiation calls on
teachers to vigilantly monitor student
proximity to content goals throughout a
learning cycle. The teacher needs to
know what each student knows and can
do at a given moment.

As Parker Palmer (1998) wrote,

Learning doesn't happen when students are unable to express their ideas, emotions, confusion, ignorance, and prej- udices. In fact, only when people can speak their minds does education have a chance to happen. (p. 74)
