What is Differentiated Instruction? It’s consistently and proactively
creating different pathways to help all your students to be successful.
~Betty Hollas
Differentiating Instruction is doing what’s fair for students. It’s a collection of best practices strategically employed to maximize students’ learning at every turn, including giving them the tools to handle anything that is undifferentiated. It requires us to do different things for different students some, or a lot of the time. It’s whatever works to advance the student. It’s highly effective teaching!

and processes but major errors or omissions regarding the more complex ideas and processes.
• 1 – With help, a partial understanding of some of the simpler details and processes and some of the more complex ideas and processes.
• 0 – Even with help, no understanding or skill demonstrated.

When Differentiating You Must Know . . .• each child’s readiness level.
– early readiness– readiness– advanced readiness
• each child’s interests. (p. 138)
• how each child learns best. (p. 139)
• how the child feels about the classroom, him/herself, and learning.

Storytelling• Stories provide a script for us to tie
information to our memory. (Markowitz & Jensen, 1999)
• Storytelling is a wonderful way to access more than one memory lane. Putting semantic information into a story format allows a student to see not only the whole idea but the details as well since the brain processes both wholes and parts at the same time. (Caine & Caine, 1997)

Mineral Scale StoryWritten by: Greg Hopkins, Dana Meinders, Paula Seal at Robinson Elementary in Aurora, Missouri
• There once was a hillbilly named Min --- Earl Scale. Earl talced funny. He had a girlfriend who dressed like a gypsum. Every night they checked the cattle at the cal-cite. Then they would come sit on the flurite next to the dog, Opalite. Their favorite sport was to go out to the fields and spar (feldspar). The winner would get a Quartz of moonshine. Topaz the rest of the time, they corundumed up the mountain and back down again. After five trips up and down the mountain, they would die in mounds (diamonds).

Mnemonic Devices
• Mnemonics create links or associations between new information the brain is receiving and information already stored in long-term memory. (Wolfe, 2001)
• Mnemonics help activate the creation of stronger neuro-links in the hippocampus, which are essential to short- and long-term memory. (Jensen, 2001)

Movement• Movement involves more of a
student’s brain than does seatwork since movement accesses multiple memory systems. (Jensen, 2001)
• Having students stand up, walk, jump, and clap as they review, understand, or master material will strengthen their procedural memories. (Sprenger, 1999)

Music, Rhythm, Rhyme and Rap
• Music activates and synchronizes neural networks which increase the brain’s ability to reason spatially, think creatively, and perform in generalized mathematics. (Jensen, 2001)
