| Summary: | Teaching to Every Kid's Potential is an invitation to teachers to improve the learning in their classrooms, one student at a time, using practical, evidence-based strategies. Focusing on four big concepts from neuroscience, flexibility, readiness, connection and masking, the author shows how to apply them to build on the strengths of students. Each chapter unpacks the science, shows how talents can compensate for neural processing issues, includes the story of a real-life individual who embodies such talents and suggests small but powerful adjustments to classroom practice that will allow kids' gifts to emerge. |
