In their book Do-able Differentiation, Michael F. Opitz and Michael P. Ford make differentiation practical for your classroom. Now their one-day workshop Do-able Differentiation shows you first hand the teaching strategies that support the biggest classes, work with the busiest curriculums, and bring the best out in all students.Opitz and Ford put proven thinking and practices for differentiation into your hands. From assessment and planning to instruction, they'll show you how to use four foundational differentiation techniques:
- grouping without tracking
- jigsawing
- connected literature circles
- focused readers workshop.
And Opitz and Ford really do make differentiation do-able. At the primary and intermediate levels they share essentials such as lesson plans and offer strategies for adapting and modifying their ideas for use with any classroom reading program. They'll even show you how differentiation can provide the basis for success with RTI.
