Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Students' home and family environments, because they reflect social class, influence the probability of students' success in the traditional school.

ANSWER: Teachers with middle-class backgrounds may experience difficulties in understanding and motivating their disadvantaged students. Dialect and language background may make it difficult for middle-class or nonminority teachers to communicate effectively with low-income minority students.
