every classroom, it commonly occurs that students’ leaming progress is never at the same rate. The students
with disabilities or learning difficulties especially need extra help. It would be very difficult for the teacher
to give lessons to the whole class when students do not progress at the same level.
E 47. This action research case study first provided the research aim and questions, and a literature review
on students’ diversity in the classroom. The study then utilized experiences to find out what had been
occurring concerning students’ diversity in a primary school and particularly in a Year One classroom.

or other ideologies”. As individuals are unique, the students’ diversity in the classroom is inevitable.
