NEEDS ASSESSMENT HIGHLIGHTS
Celebrations Our classrooms can be described as
student centered. We use ongoing assessments (pre-
& post-) to check for student understanding & for instructional planning.
We vary the pace of learning for our students’ needs.
We make various accommodations to meet the needs of our students.
We provide tasks that make students do something with their knowledge.
All students participate in tasks and we use tiering.
We use flexible groupings and meet with students in small groups for instruction.
We provide students with some choice.
We have been using technology in our instruction.
Room for Growth Identifying students’
learning profiles to help with planning.
Varying tasks by learner profiles.
Identifying students’ interests to assist in planning.
Varying tasks by students’ interests.
Continue developing learning targets and communicating them to students.
Continue allowing for a range of product alternatives (especially relating to learner profiles).
Continue to look for new ways to integrate technology.
LEARNING PROFILES, MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES, LEARNING STYLES
Student Learning Profiles/Learning StylesOverview• Students are different and
learn in different ways.• Some students have a
dominant learning style & others learn in various ways.• “The point is to begin
building awareness of differences and planning with these in mind” (Fox & Hoffman, 2011, p. 44).• The three major types of
learning styles are: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic.
Gardner’s Multiple IntelligencesHoward Gardner was a
theorist who believed that
individuals are born with
different intelligences. He
believed that teachers should
determine an individual’s area
of strength and use strategies
and approaches to encourage
students to grow in these
areas (Sousa & Tomlinson,
2011).
① Verbal – Linguistic – these learners learn best through reading, writing, listening, & speaking (Ostwald-Kowald, 2014)
② Logical – Mathematical – these learners learn best through classifying, categorizing, & thinking about patterns & numbers (Ostwald-Kowald, 2014)
③ Visual – Spatial – these learners learn best by drawing, & viewing pictures, diagrams, & other visuals (Ostwald-Kowald, 2014)
④ Auditory-Musical – these learners learn best through music (Ostwald-Kowald, 2014)
Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences⑤ Bodily – Kinesthetic – these
learners learn best through movement & touch; they often learn by standing (Ostwald-Kowald, 2014)
⑥ Interpersonal – these learner learn best by working and collaborating with others (Ostwald-Kowald, 2014)
⑦ Intrapersonal – these learners learn best by working alone (Ostwald-Kowald, 2014)
⑧ Naturalistic – these learners learn best by working with nature; may be strong in sciences (Ostwald-Kowald, 2014)
KNOWING STUDENTS’ LEARNING STYLE PREFERENCES
Student Profile Survey
• To begin planning and differentiating for learner profiles, you must first know your students.• Administer the Student
Profile Survey to your students.• For older students – have them
complete the survey independently
• For younger students – read the survey to the students; you may want to administer survey 1:1 depending on the age of the students
• Review the results of the surveys• Notice any commonalities
amongst students

DIFFERENTIATING PROCESS BY STUDENT LEARNING PROFILE
Helpful Tips• While planning a lesson,
review your students’
learning style preferences
and multiple intelligences
• Think of various ways to
introduce new concepts that
will appeal to your students’
learning styles
• Present new concepts in as
many different ways as
possible
Ideas & ExamplesType of Learner Process Ideas
Verbal-Linguistic Learners Books on Tape, Read Instructions Aloud, Videos, CDs, Repeat Information Verbally, Read Alouds, Lectures, Choral Reading
Logical-Mathematical Learners Graphs, Charts, Equations
Visual-Spatial Learners Flash Cards, Pictures & Photographs, Cartoons, Maps, Written Instructions, Books, Films/Videos, Use of Highlighters, Use of graphic organizers, Posters
Auditory-Musical Learners Integrate Music, Create Songs to Present Information
Ideas & ExamplesType of Learner Process Ideas
Bodily-Kinesthetic Learners Games & Puzzles, Provide Manipulatives, Experiments, Field Trips, Role-Playing
Interpersonal Learners Discussions, Cooperative Groups, Reading in Pairs
Intrapersonal Learners Read-to-Self, Worksheets
Naturalistic Learners Science Experiments , Present Information Outdoors, Observations of Plants & Animals
GIVING STUDENTS CHOICE IN PRODUCTS BASED ON LEARNING STYLES
Helpful Tips• Have multiple opportunities for
students to demonstrate their
understanding
• Allow students to have choice
when creating a product
• Menus (click on image to
download an editable version)
• Choice Boards (click on image to
be directed to some choice
boards)
• Have multiple assessments
available that appeal to a
variety of learning styles
Ideas & ExamplesType of Learner Product Ideas
Verbal-Linguistic Learners Writing Activities, Speeches, Lecture, Debate, Website Creation, Mnemonics, Acronyms
Logical-Mathematical Learners Problems with Solutions, Puzzles, Demonstrations, Create Graphic Organizers/ Representation of Information, Lists
Visual-Spatial Learners Create a Model, Computers, Create Diagrams or Maps, Photography, Collage, Power Point Presentations, Comic Life
Auditory-Musical Learners Create a Song of Learned Information
Ideas & ExamplesType of Learner Product Ideas
Bodily-Kinesthetic Learners Perform a skit/play, Game, Crafts, Computers, Diorama, Create a Model, iMovie, Demonstrations
Interpersonal Learners Work in Collaborative Groups, Group Projects, Oral Presentations, Role-Playing
Intrapersonal Learners Individual Projects, Blogging, Journal
Naturalistic Learners Projects About the Outdoors, Scientific Demonstrations
SELF-ASSESSMENT & SURVEY
Self-Assessment SurveyAfter you have spent some
time differentiating your
instruction for learning styles,
take take the self-assessment.

Please take the time to
complete a short survey about
the effectiveness of this
