Description:
Teachers should be constantly engaged in adjusting their teaching to 'differentiate' to meet the needs of their students. Differentiation can be introduced through curriculum planning, your approach to classroom instruction (or teaching strategies) and the assessment tasks that you ask students to complete. It is core work for teaching but it is also complex. In this session the presenter will outline five strategies that any teacher can use to differentiate for the diverse range of abilities in the classroom. The strategies are practical and classroom focused - and can be applied across range of subjects. The session will focus on secondary classrooms.

Standards addressed:

• 1.5.2 Differentiate teaching to meet the specific learning needs of learners across the full range of abilities
• 3.2.2 Plan, structure and sequence learning programs
