This easy-to-use, teacher-friendly book is a must-have for any educator wanting to differentiate instruction for the gifted or regular classroom. Differentiating instruction has become an integral part of classroom instruction, and tiering lessons is a practical, easy, and efficient way to ensure the various needs and learning levels of elementary students are met.
The authors provide a summary of the process, with detailed instructions for tiering lessons for the elementary grades. Also included are tips for grouping students by interest, learning style, or ability level; a template for creating your own tiered lessons; and a concise resource section for differentiating and preparing lessons.
Ten concise sample lessons and two tiered units, covering the math, science, language arts, and social studies disciplines, are also included for teacher use. Differentiating instruction will take on a new meaning in your classroom as you implement these fun, engaging, and student-friendly lessons.
