"Teachers enhance student learning by utilizing different grouping strategies, teaching cues, management techniques, transitions, progressions, and modifications to equipment and space based on the awareness they gain about their students. When preparing for instruction, accomplished teachers consider variables such as class size, skill levels, and developmental levels relative to students’ physical, emotional, cognitive, and social characteristics." (NBPTS, nd)
