Activity 1 ~ What is Differentiated Instruction (D.I.)?
In small groups, brainstorm on your cards to define D.I. and what it entails in a Tier I regular classroom environment. Assign one group member as writer, one as clarifier, one as questioner, and one as spokesperson. Be prepared to have your spokesperson present your group’s answers. You may present your answers in writing, orally, using a visual representation, or by leading us in a short group/activity of your choosing/design.

Who Am I? Enjoy discussions and talking things through and listening to others Acquire knowledge by reading aloud Hum and/or talk to yourself Make comments like: “I hear you clearly.” “I’m wanting you to listen.” “This sounds good.”
29
Who Am I? Take detailed notes rather than get involved in discussions
Tend to sit in the front so you can see clearly Benefit from illustrations and presentations, and especially those in colour Make comments like: “How do you see the situation?” “What do you see stopping you?” “Do you see what I am showing you?”
30
Who Am I? Need lots of breaks and will want to move around
Speak with your hands and gestures Remember what was done, but have difficulty with what was said or seen Learn through doing activities Make comments like: “How do you feel about this?” “Let’s move forward together.” “Are you in touch with what I am saying?”

Scenarios When you ask a student…
Can you group by characteristics such as...? What factors would you change if...? If ... happened, what might the ending have been? How was this similar to...? What was the underlying theme of...? What do you see as other possible outcomes? Why did ... changes occur? Can you compare your ...with that presented in...? Is there a better solution to...? Judge the value of... Can you defend your position about...? Do you think ... is a good or a bad thing? Can you see a possible solution to...? If you had access to all resources how would you deal with...? Why don't you devise your own way to deal with...? What would happen if...? How many ways can you...? When you ask a student… What happened after...? How many...? Can you name the...? Describe what happened at...? Can you write a brief outline...? What do you think could of happened next...? Who do you think...? What was the main idea...? Do you know another instance where...? Could this have happened in...?

Activity #3 ~ Plan a Station or Center
Now it’s time to put those thoughts to action by Writing out a lesson plan from Lesson Starter to Homework that includes a station or center for your subject area and grade level. Creating a visual concept map for a lesson involving a station or center for your subject area and grade level. OR Leading us in a short group center or station activity set-up/rotation of your choosing/design specific to your subject area and grade level. THE GOAL IS TO LEAVE WITH AT LEAST A START TO A LESSON PLAN FOR NEXT YEAR! Also, teamwork makes the dream work so hopefully you can take and share ideas to create multiple D.I. lessons that you can use!
