Overview
In every mathematics classroom, the need for differentiated instruction is present: in many its acute. Students learn at different rates, in different ways, with different successes and different challenges. Instruction must be flexible enough to meet everyones needs and nurturing enough to not only support growth but also address the frustration that often leads to mathphobia. The Differentiated Math Classroom can help make high-quality differentiated instruction a classroom reality. Its the usable, comprehensive resource teachers need to help students of all levels and abilities succeed with math. Whether you teach math sixty minutes a day or six periods a day, The Differentiated Math Classroom describes both the big ideas of differentiation and the day-to-day teaching that makes it work. Miki Murray and Jenny Jorgensen present everything you need to get started and to help all students meet national standards, including ideas for:
- Setting up a classroom to maximize opportunities for differentiation and establish community
- Getting to know students strengths and needs through high-quality assessments
- Devising anchor activities that help students work independently with meaningful math content while you free up time for individual instruction
- Creating tiered lessons that scaffold content and provide the flexibility to challenge some students and offer assistance to others.
