Spread the loveDifferentiation is essential in classroom instruction to ensure mastery is achieved by students of all ability levels. When considering mathematics, it can be difficult to find effective ways to scaffold and differentiate. The first step to achieving effective differentiation is to evaluate the proficiency level of each student, and understanding where the knowledge gaps are occurring. Once you understand which students need differentiation, it is important to find language, modeling approaches, and activities that are accessible to those students. Two effective differentiation strategies include tiered instruction and flexible grouping. We will explore these concepts and discover how to … Continue reading A Guide to Differentiation in Mathematics
