iSpy is an instructional strategy that could be considered as a form of differentiated instruction. Students are expected to work in groups. While students work on tasks within their groups, one spy in each group is allowed to “spy” on another group without any interactions and report to their original group with any new information. This level of guided inquiry allows students to collaborate with their peers before asking for assistance from a teacher. It promotes asking like-minded peers for help and creativity by seeing different approaches their peers might have on whatever task they’re working on. In this lesson example specifically students use the strategy to demonstrate the knowledge of Newton's Law in creating their own "slingshots".

“Differentiated instruction is the process of tailoring lessons to meet each student’s individual interests, needs, and strengths.”

Four ways educators can differentiate their instruction through:

1. Content: What is being taught to the class.

2. Process: How instruction is taught to the class.

3. Product: The result of what students learned or how they demonstrate what they learned.

4. Enviornment: How the classroom is manipulated or aides students.
