Understanding the distinction between language and literacy is essential. Students may demonstrate strong literacy skills in spoken and written communication, yet still struggle with the specialized vocabulary and conventions of academic language. Supporting all learners requires meeting them where they are and providing appropriate resources and strategies that help bridge the gap between everyday communication and academic success.

Culture and race are different, however but are important in the classroom environment and should be treated as such.

Each student brings their own lens through which they are filtering the material, and we must endeavour to understand their lens.
