As a district we are more teacher-centered but our goal as a group is to have more balance for this upcoming school year. #ImpactOnNewTeachers#SCcoaching22
“Teachers who differentiate instruction quickly point out, if anything, they exert more leadership in their classroom, not less.” @cat3y@andreammeiers#RockyEducation
Differentiated instruction is so powerful b/c it offers various levels of genuine challenge. Your students’ sense of self-efficacy comes from recognizing their power after accomplishing something they thought was “too big” for them. @cat3y@andreammeiers#RockyEducation
“For all its promise... effective differentiation is complex to use and thus difficult to promote in schools. Moving toward differentiation is a long-term change process.” @cat3y#RockyEducation@andreammeiers
“In general, remember that groups will work better if students know what to do, how to do it, and what is expected of group members, and what constitutes quality of both working processes and product.” @caroltomlinson on differentiated grouping. @andreammeiers#RockyEducation
Teachers in differentiated classrooms:”have a conviction that students differ in learning-students are active learners, decision makers, and problem solvers are more natural and effective than those in which students are passive recipients of info.” @andreammeiers#rockyeducation
@rockyeducation Service orientation really surprised me. I just remember getting ready for college and everything was about what MY future should look like and no so much considering others and being a "servant,"
