How do you feel about the assignment you’re about to do?
Are you excited about the assignment?
This simulation, however, is a bit like using remedial instruction. If we never let students do what they like and are good at, we never see their potential. We also do not fulfill their need for power, fun, freedom.
The Assignment: Groups
The actual assignment is to work with those in your MOST preferred learning style in order to create the representation about
differentiation.
The Actual Assignment
Sort these words into three categories: Most Important, Somewhat Important, and
Least Important
Health Adventure Challenge Leisure
Reading Organization

Timeliness Fun
