Schools had little influence on a child’s achievement that was independent of the background and social

What Highly Effective Schools Do…
Highly effective schools succeed where other schools fail because they ruthlessly organize
themselves around one thing: helping students learn a great deal … focusing on
student learning and then creating structures that support that learning. Karin Chenoweth, 2009

What is differentiation?
Differentiation is a philosophy that enables teachers to plan strategically in order to reach
the needs of the diverse learners in classrooms today

“In differentiated classrooms, teachers begin where students are, not the
front of a curriculum guide.” CTomlinson
![Page 15: School Assistance Meeting (SAMs) December 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56815c46550346895dca45d0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Differentiated Instruction
is NOT
Just arranging
students into groups of 4
Whole Group work
done in small groups
28 different
lesson plans
Giving all students the exact same
work or assessments
Assuming all students learn by listening
![Page 16: School Assistance Meeting (SAMs) December 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56815c46550346895dca45d0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Differentiated Instruction is…
Using small groups to
work closely with non-mastery students
Offering tiered
lessons to meet all learners needs
One plan addressing
the needs of all learners.
Different assignments
in small groups based on knowledge
level
Visualizing success for all students
Offering teacher-guided
choices to students on
the direction of their learning

For Differentiation to Work in High School…
Policies and Procedures Must Be in Place

A teacher must:
• Be willing to develop the necessary skills
• Be willing to persist in maturing those skills
![Page 36: School Assistance Meeting (SAMs) December 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56815c46550346895dca45d0/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Learn Their Students
• Become a kid watcher • See their students as individuals rather than as
a group • Identify their personality and learning style
![Page 37: School Assistance Meeting (SAMs) December 2010](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56815c46550346895dca45d0/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Begin by:
• Differentiating in small ways – various graphic organizers, giving students choices, giving kids options to work alone or in small groups
• Utilizing the models we presented today

The Principals Role
A. Principals should be keepers of the vision--people who use the pulpit of leadership to help teachers reflect on the need to meet students where they are. They should provide the leadership to say, "In this school, we want to nurture teachers who look at individuals rather than groups. We don't do anything in this building that doesn't move us in that direction. “
