THE DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION BOOK of LISTS

Differentiated Instruction (DI) puts the focus on student activity rather than direct teacher instruction. In differentiated classrooms, students are doing things like moving around the room to learning stations, leading discussions, giving presentations, and working on teams to solve creative problems. These involved students are highly invested in learning and are given a wide variety of opportunities to succeed.

The Differentiated Instruction Book of Lists is the definitive reference for Differentiated Instruction for teachers in grades K-12. Ready for immediate use, this handy resource includes more than 150 up-to-date lists for developing instructional materials, planning lessons, and assessing students. Written by two experts on the topic, the book is filled with practical examples, proven teaching ideas, and engaging activities that can be used or adapted to meet the wide range of students' individual needs.

• Teach with the individual in mind
