Explannation

This question allows the instructor to use their knowledge of methods for preparing and adapting instruction to all students' characteristics, abilities, strengths, and needs. Students may create associations between their current understandings and new concepts and ideas with the aid of effective instruction.

Students from various socioeconomic backgrounds have varying perspectives and levels of access to enrichment opportunities (such as art classes and science camps) as well as educational services (e.g., museums, libraries, technology). Teachers must understand this difference in students' experiential experiences and contexts when selecting examples that will serve as the foundation for new learning to make learning relevant for all students.
