  • Other Comments:

    I think it is very important for educators of elementary students to understand how they learn, especially when it comes to helping them with problem solving. This article does a great job in highlighting instructional strategies that will aide not only the student, but the educator of the student. I found this article to be very interesting and deem it to be very helpful for educators within this discipline.
