Differentiated Instruction Strategies

• Bubble Map: It organizes describing attributes of something; great for visual students. • Choral Response: It is an excellent way of overall assessing without singling students out. • First of Five: It helps shy students start participating. • Flow Map: It shows sequencing, orders, time lines, cycles, and relationships between stages and sub- stages of events. • Four Corners: It helps shy or struggling students give an opinion and kinesthetic students to relax. • Gather Background Information: It helps you include all your students in a way in which they feel you care about them. • Group Based on Goals: It differentiates tasks by giving different objectives to students depending on their interests, abilities, or knowledge. • Individual Respond Card: It helps shy or struggling students participate without the fear of being heard. • Individualized Feedback: It helps struggling students develop a task with more support and guidance.
