  9. Using Multiple Intelligence as teaching entry points • Handout (pg. 16-17) • In partners or small groups, choose an objective and determine how you would begin teaching the concept using the different entry points. • Objectives

  10. Differentiating in the Classroom • Use of pre-assessment strategies: • Multiple Intelligences • Entry points into concepts • Learning styles • Processes and product • Interests • Choosing units for development • Products/projects • Activities • Readiness • Scaffolding • Processes • Groupings • Content • Products • Prior knowledge

  11. Differentiation Learning outcomes can NOT be adapted. If outcomes are adapted it becomes a modified, alternate program, or PPP. Read outcomes carefully – what are they looking for? Content Process Product Environment You can differentiate everything except for the key ingredient of the outcome. If it is content based, you can differentiate everything else.

  12. Differentiation Activity • Choose an objective – what are the key points, what pieces of it can be differentiated? • Curriculum objectives
