What is DI????? • “Responding to the needs of your students at their current learning level.”
Typical questions about DI • How do I currently meet my students’ learning needs in my classroom? • How do I address different learning styles and interests? • How do I vary student groupings and readiness levels?

Good and the Bad • Meets the students at their current level • Classroom Management???? • PLANNING • Do it once and you will be a pro before you know it • Even better, you probably already do some form of DI
Pre-Assessment • You must do some type of pre-assessment to know the current level of your students • Formal and Informal • Examples? • Example • Pre-quiz, 5 questions • 4 makes mastery, 80% • My students knew this is the goal
Grouping your Students • Basic, Grade level and Advanced(Tier 1, 2 and 3…RTI) • Make your groupings from your pre-assessment • Whole group and small group instruction • Self-learners(Advanced) • Make use of technology • Independent study • Use different levels of questioning

Lesson Planning • Practice makes perfect • I had premade dice games • Level your lesson • Basic, grade level and advanced • I STILL DID WHOLE GROUP INSTRUCTION!!!! • Start with the end in mind!!! • What does this mean? • Backwards planning
Assessment…..Post-Quiz • I used the same quiz for a pre and post quiz(test-wiseness??) • I ALWAYS had the core standard(s) we are learning on the quizzes and in our notes…….gives students some real world relevance to ISTEP • Choice Board assessments • DATA, DATA, DATA
