Instruction is mostly about how you teach, while curriculum is more about what you teach. Even though you must follow a curriculum and you should have daily lesson plans to help you stay organized, putting your own stamp on instruction is important. Again, your personality will make your teaching come alive for your students. Every teacher will approach the same information differently. Spend some time thinking about your own style and how to use it to help your students learn.

In the end, instruction has a lot to do with you and how you go about teaching and helping your students to learn. This is one of the areas of teaching where your individuality and creativity can really shine.
