Background knowledge provides a foundation for comprehension, therefore; privileged kids seem to have the upper hand over less privileged children. Because these kids are exposed to better vocabulary and learning opportunities they enter school more prepared. Many times the less privileged students begin school behind and will continue to trail unless parents and/or educators intervene. These students can catch up with an enormous amount of effort on their part. They need to understand their effort and hard work will be worth it in the end. One last point I find very interesting is different, learning styles do not really impact overall learning. This is contradictory to what I have been taught regarding differentiated instruction. However, using differentiated instruction can be useful to peak students’ interest in learning and keep them
