the achievement gap
what can students do to close up the achievement gap?
the thing that student could do to close the gap is by studying more and paying attention in class also could go to bed earlier so they wont go to sleep during class also should ask for help when they need to instead of just sitting there being quiet because they think that people would laugh at them because they don't understand some thing.
what can parents do to close the achievement gap?
the thing parents can do is check to see if there child has any homework and if they do they should try to help them even if they don't want there help.the parent can also come up with a system were there kids can watch TV un till they are dune with there home work.
what can teachers do to close up the gap?
the thing teachers can do is make sure everyone understands how to do what they are doing before the teacher goes one to something else because if they do that student would be confused when they start something else.
what can schools do to close the gap?
schools could help by getting teachers that care about the students and don't come to work just for the money. Maybe have smaller classes or a normal size class with two teacher so that everyone would have a chance to understand everything.
