  1. Differentiated Instruction:Adapting the Process Facilitated By Sara Fridley & Kathleen West Region 3 Education Service Agency sara.fridley@k12.sd.us kathleen.a.west@k12.sd.us Workshop 2

  2. Workshop Outcomes • Increased understanding of how to differentiate the “process” • Establish a new personal professional library of resources on differentiation • Begin creation of a differentiated lesson/unit to be used in your own classroom

  3. Key #1 – Adapt Process • Students use key skills • Bloom’s Taxonomy • Multiple Intelligence Theories • Common focus • Vary student activities • Vary complexity • Teacher uses a variety of methods

  4. Using Reading Strategies in All Content Areas • Vary strategies to aid a variety of learning styles/intelligences • Good reading strategies work in any content area

  5. High Quality Resources • Marco Polo – curriculum resources • http://www.marcopolo-education.com • ReadWriteThink • Illuminations • ArtsEdge • EconEdLink • National Geographic Expeditions • ScienceNetLinks • EdSitement

  6. Time For Lunch Come back at 1:00

  7. A Few Sample Lessons • Math Activities • Pi Day • Fractals • Social Studies • T-Shirts Through Time • Science & Problem Solving • Space Day • HS 2005 Project

  8. The 4 Hats of a Teacher • Diagnostician • Who am I teaching? • Program Design Engineer • What are students expected to learn? • Project Manager • How are students demonstrating their knowledge? • Assessor • Does the student product reflect/demonstrate understandings but also challenge them to stretch?

  9. Adapting the Process: Pre-assessment in a Differentiated Classroom • Provides a baseline of prior knowledge • Helps set a high ceiling • Capitalizes on interests, abilities, strengths, learning styles Handout: Pre-assessment ladder

  10. Approaches to Pre-Assessment • Formal • Pre-tests/quizzes • Performance on prior end-of-unit assessments • Informal • Journal entries • Surveys • Webbing activities • Systematic Observation

  11. Let’s Build a Lesson • Standards based • What pre-assessment could you use? • Understanding By Design • “Four Stages” of lesson design • Identify desired outcomes • Determine acceptable evidence • Plan learning experiences and instructional activities • Plan differentiation

  12. Homework for March • Bring your first lesson/unit in March • Rough draft is OK • Present it to the group • Read & Explore • The Brain Compatible Classroom • The Body, Movement, & the Brain • Time, Time, and More Time

  13. The Body, Movement, and the Brain • Essential Question – How can movement help the brain reach its potential? • The Brain-Compatible Classroom • Chapter 3 (pg 41) • What can you take from this resource back to your own classroom?

  14. Time, Time, and More Time • Essential Question – What role does TIME play in the classroom? • The Brain-Compatible Classroom • Chapter 5 (pg 75) • What can you take from this resource back to your own classroom?
