Since "culture" is the product of family, neighborhood, community and regional histories, this combination of influences on how a student perceives themselves and the world is complex. Realistically, we can't become intimately familiar with that much detail; HOWEVER, that does not excuse us from trying to understand what expectations and needs students have coming into the classroom and how those match or do not match the goals we have for them. Our relationship and instructional goals, if focused on closing the gap between student understandings and our educational goals, can help narrow the equity gaps in education. https://padlet.com/edavenport4/FFSDEquity/wish/284367291 2018-09-21 13:40:48 UTC https://padlet.com/edavenport4/FFSDEquity/wish/284367291 Equity Science https://padlet.com/edavenport4/FFSDEquity/wish/284367294 Offering choice in assignments to reach different levels of student.

Teachers are made to lower expectations to keep students from failing. Lowering expectations is not fair to our students and they are not learning the things they need to be successful in life. The majority of our students are smart enough to do the higher level of work but we do not push them. We allow them to be lazy and skate by on minimal effort. This is a HUGE fail for our students.

We built an entire new school for only the top 5 percent of students in our district. The rest of the schools are left with oversized classroom, fewer teachers and adult 🤬, and students with a large variety of needs. Even within our school we have segregated out the smartest kids and put them on one team with small class sizes so they get more individualized attention. Meanwhile, the students who need the most help and attention get stuck in rooms with a ratio of 28 to 1, and very little education happens, it is more classroom management. The students who need the most help get the least help. If you stop and think about it, the lowest tier students are the ones we should be pulling out of classrooms and putting into a different program where they can get their needs met on a more individual basis. The 5 percenters get pushed further because they get a better education than the lower 30 percent. This opens their lives to more opportunities once they leave our school. It would take a radical shift in thinking to make any changes.

As a new teacher I find it hard to keep things equitable with the various types of learners in one classroom setting. Visual learners learn different than auditory or kinesthetic learners and having to come up with a lesson plan that supports all is difficult in order to keep things equitable on how the students learn as we can't separate the types of learners and just have classes were you just have one type of learner in the class. In all my years teaching, PD attendance and educational courses in college this is one point I'd love to get feedback on.
