What+is+Differentiation?

=What is Differentiation? (Overview)= Date: 6/15/09 Presenter: UVA Staff

Description: // The numerous components of differentiating instruction can make it challenging to envision how everything can come together in one smoothly running classroom. Orchestrating a flexible and responsive learning environment requires well-planned strategies for keeping track of time, organizing materials, coordinating technology, monitoring groups, and increasing student ownership of the classroom. In this session, //// participants will discuss the “hot spots” of management, analyze examples of well-managed primary-grades classrooms, and make plans for applying a range of strategies and routines to their own teaching situations. //

Objectives/Ideas:
 * Definition of DI
 * Samples of DI Activities
 * Guiding Principals of DI

Application/Implementation: I plan ti use these strategies throughout the year as I work with teachers and students, giving options and choices as appropriate.
