Rainbow Skies for Teachers

54. Unlocking 9 Differentiation Strategies


Listen Later

“Help! How do I differentiate?”—It’s the number one question we hear from teachers time and time again.

Gone are the days when teaching was a one-size-fits-all approach with students simply following along. Now, we understand so much more about how the brain works and how students learn in their own unique ways. That's why differentiation is absolutely essential in today’s classroom. It’s all about ensuring every student can thrive, no matter where they’re starting from!

But we know, it isn’t as easy as clicking your fingers and your lessons are differentiated. It takes time, skill and a toolkit of ideas and strategies. 

 

Today we are here to share the strategies. Some you may tick off in your mind because you are already doing them, others might inspire you to give them a go!

 

We breakdown these 9 strategies to help differentiate in your classroom:

  • Content
  • Process
  • Product
  • Pacing
  • Learning Environment
  • Grouping
  • Choice / Choice Boards
  • Interest
  • Readiness

 

You can’t possibly implement all these differentiation strategies at once, so think of these ideas like a menu that you can pick and choose from!

 

If this episode was helpful and you would love to hear more about differentiation in the classroom, write us a review and let us know! We value the feedback we get from our awesome teacher listeners.

 

Rainbows ahead,
