Wind- Wolf is not a slow learner but a culturally different learner. He comes from an Indian reservation , so his culture is different from the Western culture. Wind-Wolf has already got some knowledge about the world but he has got it through different methods. There are different methods at Western schools. Therefore, the teacher from the school will probably have to learn about Wind- Wolf's world. She must not impose on him the Western view of the world.
Wind- Wolf learnt about the universe- <em>Mother Earth</em>- when he was born. He was born and a traditional native childbirth ceremony took place. He had been bonded to his mother since that moment ,so he developed many faculties observing his mother. He was secure in his <em>turtle shell </em>and he could also learn many things from there. He learnt about health; he learnt about the universe and he also learnt about mathematics. This <em>turtle shell </em>was his first seat in a classroom.
He learnt about healing when he observed his mother during a Sun Dance Ceremony. Her mother danced for several days. She fasted and pierced herself during this ceremony. Wind-wolf doctored in many healing ceremonies. Then, he has different knowledge about the universe. There are thirteen months for Wind- Wolf because there are thirteen full moons for his people. There are also thirteen planets and thirteen tail feathers in the tail of an eagle. The eagle is the most powerful bird in the ceremonies and in healing. Then, he learnt to count while he listened to his mother count beads. Her mother made baskets, necklaces and belts with beads. It was hard work for his mother , but she could count the beads and combine them with different colours in many products.
In conclusion, Wind- Wolf is not a slow-learner at all but a different learner. He has got a different culture. He has to learn about a new culture but he does not have to abandon his knowledge. Therefore, Wind- Wolf's teacher has to learn about his world. If she does not learn about it, "she" will become a "slow-teacher".

Answer:
B tercets :a free verse poem is made for three-line stanzas. C couplets: most free verse poems are composed of two line stanzas.
Explanation:
the tercets help with the stanzas and give you a idea on what kind of poem it makes up. Poems divided into stanzas have different tone while poems with free verse have different feelings or sometimes even the same as tone with added description.
I think it’s B, since while an actor has a role, a doctor works in medicine, like a teacher would work in a school.
Answer:
water and oil don't mix
they form an emulsion
oil is less dense then water
Explanation:
Since there are no given answers, let's examine all pieces of information we can find here.
After mixing two liquids, Janet shook this mixture. She did it in order to enhance the rate of dissolving. After some time passed, we see that these liquids are separated into two distinct layers, meaning that water and oil do not mix (oil doesn't dissolve in water). This also means that water and oil form an emulsion - an unmixable suspension of two liquids.
Another feature we can observe is that the oil had risen to the top. Denser liquid will always fall down, meaning that oil is less dense then water.
