Math for All
Embrace the diverse spectrum of abilities, interests, and learning styles among students with this powerful series. Each book offers practical, research-based guidance to differentiating instruction in the mathematics classroom. The authors provide: dozens of ready-to-use differentiated tasks (including reproducibles), along with ways to scaffold mathematical learning; strategies for providing and structuring choice within classrooms; guidance in leading large-group discussions when students are completing different activities; and engaging ways to address NCTM's Principles and Standards for School Mathematics and Curriculum Focal Points.
Leading for Differentiation
This book provides an overview of the reflective thinking and action-oriented steps necessary to launch a system of continuous professional learning, culture building, and program assessment that will allow differentiation to flourish in every classroom.
Differentiation at Work, K-5
Based on research and the authors' experiences over the past seven years at one elementary school, Differentiation at Work, K-5 describes what schoolwide differentiation looks like in real classrooms. Lane Narvaez and Kay R. Brimijoin go beyond the "easy" definition of differentiation and describe why administrators and teachers need to receive training and ongoing support in order to achieve differentiated instruction that is responsive to students' readiness, learning styles, and interests. Their model is based on several core elements, including student feedback, the use of anchor activities, peer (teacher) collaboration, pre-assessment, and curriculum alignment. The book includes sample ...

Differentiation in Middle and High School
In this one-stop resource for middle and high school teachers, Kristina J. Doubet and Jessica A. Hockett explore how to use differentiated instruction to help students be more successful learners--regardless of background, native language, learning style, motivation, or school savvy. They explain how to * Create a healthy classroom community in which students' unique qualities and needs are as important as the ones they have in common. * Translate curriculum into manageable and meaningful learning goals that are fit to be differentiated. * Use pre-assessment and formative assessment to uncover students' learning needs and tailor tasks accordingly. * Present students with avenues to take in, ...
Detracking for Excellence and Equity
Ability grouping. Leveling systems. Streaming. This is the modern way of talking about tracking -- the traditional practice of sorting and selecting students based on test scores and other criteria, and then steering these groups into "the most appropriate" course of study. In 1987, New York's suburban Rockville Centre School District faced the fact that its longstanding tracking system was resulting in unequal educational opportunities and allowing racial and socioeconomic stratification of its student population. School leaders embarked on an ambitious program of reform: reexamining beliefs about intelligence, ability, and instruction, and offering all students the opportunity to study a r...
How to Differentiate Instruction in Academically Diverse Classrooms, Third Edition
We differentiate instruction to honor the reality of the students we teach. They are energetic and outgoing. They are quiet and curious. They are confident and self-doubting. They are interested in a thousand things and deeply immersed in a particular topic. They are academically advanced and “kids in the middle” and struggling due to cognitive, emotional, economic, or sociological challenges. More of them than ever speak a different language at home. They learn at different rates and in different ways. And they all come together in our academically diverse classrooms. Written as a practical guide for teachers, this expanded third edition of Carol Ann Tomlinson’s groundbreaking work co...
Classroom Practice and Teacher Cognition
This collection occupies the middle ground between teachers showcasing their work and academics presenting research that is often situated in irreplicable, uncommon, or impractical classroom settings. The work presented here is provided by full-time university language educators who maintain a robust and active research agenda that focuses on their own classroom practice. Whether one wishes to label it under action research, exploratory practice, reflective practice or other, the findings of the research into their own practices and educational contexts are accessible and will resonate strongly with both practicing teachers and academics investigating classroom practice and teacher cognition. All articles are written with the aim of developing practice in a way that is recognisable to teachers and beneficial to their educational efforts. Indeed, recent literature calls for guidance to come from those actively engaged in classroom teaching and who apply sound research methods to the daily contexts lived by teachers and students.
