Differentiated Instruction

The classroom that does differentiated instruction can be such a fun classroom. Every student learns differently, and in this classroom, every students needs could be met. There are so many ways that we can use this type of instruction in our classrooms. One way is group work. With the students in groups, they can work together use their strengths to help the others weaknesses. Another way is to offer different types of reading materials, that cater to the students needs. You can also offer different types of activities for your students to do. While this takes more planning on the teachers part, it is more beneficial to the students. Focusing on the student's multiple intelligences is another crucial way for you to use differentiated instruction in the classroom. While teaching a lesson, there are so many ways you can tap into the different intelligences, such as providing quizzes, acting out scenes in groups, studying for the final test as a group. Students can't sit in their chairs behind desks for long periods of time, and be expected to retain the information. If we make learning active, and fun for them, the chances of them remembering what they learned is far more likely. This gives us the opportunity to make learning fun again, and I am so excited to be apart of it.
