Definition

• Differentiation means tailoring instruction to meet individual needs. Whether teachers differentiate content, process, products, or the learning environment, the use of ongoing assessment and flexible grouping makes this a successful approach to instruction.

Page 6: Differentiated Instruction

Examples of D.I of Content

• Using varying reading leveled materials• Audio CD• Using spelling or vocabulary lists at readiness levels of

students• Presenting ideas through both auditory and visual means• Using reading buddies• Meeting with small groups to re-teach an idea or skill for

struggling learners, or to extend the thinking or skills of advanced learners.

Page 7: Differentiated Instruction

Examples of D.I. of Process

• Using tiered activities • Providing interest centers that encourage students to explore

subsets of the class topic of particular interest to them;• Developing personal agendas to be completed either during

specified agenda time or as students complete other work early• Offering manipulatives or other hands-on supports for students

who need them• Varying the length of time a student may take to complete a

task in order to provide additional support for a struggling learner or to encourage an advanced learner to pursue a topic in greater depth.

Page 8: Differentiated Instruction

Examples of D.I. of Products

• Giving students options of how to express required learning (e.g., create a puppet show, write a letter, or develop a mural with labels);

• Using rubrics that match and extend students' varied skills levels

• Allowing students to work alone or in small groups on their products

• Encouraging students to create their own product assignments as long as the assignments contain required elements.

Page 9: Differentiated Instruction

Examples of D.I. Learning Environment

• Making sure there are places in the room to work quietly and without distraction, as well as places that invite student collaboration

• Setting out clear guidelines for independent work that matches individual needs

• Developing routines that allow students to get help when teachers are busy with other students and cannot help them immediately

• Helping students understand that some learners need to move around to learn, while others do better sitting quietly
