  • one teacher, 34 different needs

  • parallel teaching: distracting environment

  • timing: equal length for different student tasks

    Timing - Students may not have enough to process the skill and may require additional time

  • It can be difficult to identify students early on because of class sizes in some classes. It can also be difficult to make sure materials are rigorous for all students.

  • After identifying students, providing different or additional materials for different levels. Having material supports (highlighters, colored pencils, graphic organizers, etc.) available for students. Allowing students to help each other in small groups.

  • Time is always a challenge. Planning ahead to accommodate to the different tiers. There may also be students that aren’t perfectly in the tiers. So tending to the “gray areas” may be difficult. There are still the unreliable factors in the classroom (ie. students who just don’t care to do the work and aren’t putting in any effort).

  • Tiered instruction can work by allowing more fluidity and allowing movement/easy transitions from one tier to another.

  • Wishlist: Technology and access to student information.
