An almost constant refrain heard from middle school teachers in "Differentiation" Staff Development sessions is "Where can I find a book that has a bunch of these kinds of activities that I can use in my classroom?"
There are many books available about curriculum differentiation, most of them addressing theory and rationale and discussing models and strategies that support it. Demystifying is for teachers and administrators who are ready to take differentiation to the next level in their classrooms and schools, who believe that differentiation works, and who are looking for more examples of it. Within each of the 35+ topics in language arts, math, science, and social studies are detailed lessons using one of the four strategies - Tiered lessons, Think-Tac-Toes, RAFT activities, and Complex Instruction.
Topics include:
-exploring a concept through literature
-punctuation marks
-tone and mood
-characterization
-graphing and data analysis
-mean, median, mode, range
-measurement
-ratio and proportion
-fractions, decimals, percents
-cell biology
-solar system
-space exploration
-genetics
-American Revolution
-Ancient Rome
-Regions of the US
-American Civil War
-Geography of Latin America
Instructions for downloading the digital content (customizable Word Documents) are included inside the back cover.
