C.Does not differentiate well
How can you improve differentiation using weak teaching methods?
Teacher talk •Keep it short •Punctuate with Q&A – use long wait times and warnings•Effective to teach to the top and to the bottom some of the timeTeacher demonstrates•Use questions – why am I doing this? Etc.•Ask students to ‘talk me through one’ – students give teacher instructions with reasoning
watching a video or Students film•Give students questions that the film will answer before showing it
Past Paper Exam questions•If there are no easy questions, write some, and ask students to do these before the past paper
Reading•Have a range of differentiated materials including some at the level below the students and some that is the level above.
