This session will focus on what the best practice “look-fors” are in terms of classroom differentiation for learners at all levels, particularly those at the higher end.
Participants explore practical strategies and review expectations of the teacher within a Tier 1 classroom setting, including the use of universal screening data, formative & summative assessments, and classroom observations that inform instructional planning. They will also explore how individualized and small-group instruction, support from learning support personnel, and collaboration with other professionals and invested parties can ensure that students’ needs are being met within a mixed-ability classroom.
