What strategies does Ms. Steinbach use to help her students learn effectively?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

In the first few days after Becky's arrival, how might Mr. Matherson and other school staff better help Becky make the transition to her new school and classroom?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

She uses concrete, visual materials (e.g., slides, relief maps, a classroom demonstration of rainfall) to portray ideas that might otherwise be fairly abstract for her students. On one occasion, she activates prior knowledge for at least one of her students

Answer to Question 2

Following are several advisable strategies:
 The school principal should definitely give Mr. Matherson advance notice that a student with a hearing impairment will be joining his classroom.
 Mr. Matherson should write information and instructions on the chalkboard more frequently than he does.
 Mr. Matherson might supplement his auditory presentations with visual aids (e.g., pictures, maps) and hands-on experiences.
 The case study doesn't tell us whether Becky has the ability to read lips (i.e., to speechread). If she does, Mr. Matherson should regularly position himself in locations where Becky can easily see his face.
