"patterning, metaphors, analogies, role playing, visuals, and movement into their reading, calculation, and analytical activities. "

I can't speak for all schools, but our school already does this. We're heavy in to analogies and metaphors because those are tested heavily, as are patterns on the math tests. Inner city schools suffer because they have crap teachers for the most part (many of them being uncredentialed or subs)- but best practices already require this sort of teaching- as well as teaching to all learning styles (visual, auditory and kinesthetic).
