For example, a S learns that they need noise-cancelling headphones to focus, and I have them in class, and the know when/how to go get them.]]> 2018-06-25 13:36:04 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268466587 Define differentiation https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268466750 Strategically modifying the content, product or process involved in a task  to help all students achieve the same learning goals.]]> 2018-06-25 13:37:17 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268466750 I differentiate in both the way I present material and assess material. I modify content, process, and product when applicable. I also try to provide student choice when possible. https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268466835 2018-06-25 13:37:50 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268466835 https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268466897 Keeping systems so day to day students are able to expect the structures of differentiation.]]> 2018-06-25 13:38:19 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268466897 https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268466955 Differentiation is modifying materials, assignments, assessments, or products to match the learning needs of students

I find it extremely challenging to maintain this practice on daily basis in large classes.]]> 2018-06-25 13:39:54 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467121 I agree, but I also think differentiation means that we are providing different ways for students to ACCESS the curriculum, and as needed, different levels at which to practice skills. mbrown610 https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467123 2018-06-25 13:39:55 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467123 Improve on providing options without being overwhelming for kids who have trouble with multi-step directions ashapiro7 https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467129 2018-06-25 13:39:59 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467129 Agree...while understanding that although there is an organic aspect - planning for what-ifs is essential. https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467147 2018-06-25 13:40:11 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467147 Current differentiation https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467205 Strategically scheduled check-ins (check in with ELL student first and provide supplementary instruction and modeling of sentence starters, then check-in again at the mid-point of a task; only check in with another student once)]]> 2018-06-25 13:40:31 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467205 bearimagines https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467214 Focus content on the Big Ideas of my content, to have fewer, higher leverage, ideas for students to focus on. The goal of this is to reduce the cognitive-organizational demand of the course.]]> 2018-06-25 13:40:36 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467214 I provide multiple prompts and graphic organizer choices. I also provide more than one way to access a text (links to audio, texts with structured notes on side, etc). Some students have full selection, some are more guided to particular options. I also have extension assignments in each project ashapiro7 https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467399 2018-06-25 13:41:43 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467399 To improve on: I'd like o be better at providing options for students who learn content/skills more quickly and who could use additional challenges to keep them engaged. BUT I want to be able to do this w/o crating two or more completely separate paths within the course. mbrown610 https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467526 2018-06-25 13:42:37 UTC https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268467526 https://padlet.com/gracehevans/karzinhisfur/wish/268532067 Start differentiated Instruction by establishing different levels for each course. The very wide range in level of knowledge of English language, Math, Science and scholarly skills at BCLA do not allow to have only one level for each course. Inside each level there is further need in differentiation. Differentiation in a one level course does not benefit all students in  the class and takes too much teacher time which is not available at BCLA.
