How do I differentiate instruction in the upper elementary literacy classroom?
In this episode:
After listening to this episode you will leave with clarity around the what, the why and the how of differentiated instruction in the upper elementary classroom.
I talk about:
1.What- What is differentiated instruction anyway?
2. Why- Why does differentiated instruction matter?
3. How-How do I differentiate instruction in my upper elementary literacy classroom?
Quotables:
- Differentiation is the ability of the teacher to ensure that content, process, product or accountability are structured in such a way that all students are able to access the curriculum and set on a path to demonstrate mastery of the grade level standards.
-All students deserve to feel some measure of success in a day. One way to make this happen is to create paths for them to be able to access mastery of the standards we teach them each day.
- An intentional mini lesson really is the best vehicle for delivering high quality research based instruction.
-Small group and whole group instruction can both be ineffective if they are poorly planned and all around unintentional.
