In math, cover concepts like addition, subtraction, counting, and number recognition, using manipulatives and visual aids. Provide individualized support and offer extra help or enrichment as needed.
A structured daily routine, clear expectations, and positive reinforcement contribute to a well-managed classroom. Real-world application of lessons helps students understand the relevance of what they learn. Integrating technology and involving parents in the learning process are also valuable approaches.
