Differentiating Instruction

The main purpose of differentiating instruction is to make sure every student gets the opportunity to learn in the ways they are most adapted to. Teachers need to learn what their students strengths and weaknesses are and teach to the way that they feel most confident In. A lesson cannot be developed to suit every person in the classroom. There are students that need more of a challenge, those who have crossed the learning threshold and can be challenged a little further, and those who need more help and need to be instructed of prove there knowledge in a totally different manner. Tiered lessons are a great way to make sure students have a choice and can answer in whs that make them more confident and successful. They are great tools to give students room to choose.
