I would level my class assignments and learning outcomes for those who are gifted.

I would plan in advance a "vertical enrichment" activity for gifted students where the student would make a brochure over their favorite planet and give me 10 interesting facts about the planet that they choose. Students are asked to research a planet in our solar system, and illustrate and fill in various pieces of information on the brochure.

Instead of having the students that are Non-Native speakers put the information in English I will have them write 2 pages of the packet in their own language and then the rest in English.

have an outline of directions printed out in their language so that they can understand what today's lesson is going to be about.

Use visual and concrete information as much as possible.

I would put the Special Needs learners with a support group with their peers.

Simplify and declutter the classroom for my students so they don't get distracted.

I would remind the students each time how much time they have left to work on their packet.

Instead of having the students with a learning disability fill out the packet they can do the assignment on Office Word Document.
