Personal Action Planning1. What specific learning goals do you have for this
session?2. What specific areas would you like to focus on
regarding DI & Technology?3. What do you anticipate potentially learning from
your colleagues in this session?4. How do you think participating in today’s
session will impact your teaching practice and the learning of your students?

Minds-On: Deck of Questions
1. Take a letter size paper and fold in half.
2. Fold in quarters.3. Fold again to create eight equal
sections.4. Tear along folded region, to create
8 pieces.5. On each piece, record a question
you would not mind someone asking you.
6. Combine your deck of questions with a partner. Shuffle the deck and take turns asking each other questions. Remove questions once used.

The Professional Learning Cycle
![Page 8: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Plan, Act, Observe, Reflect
• Cycle is not static (active)• Learning happens when we are involved in
activity• Strategies for continuous improvement • Improve student achievement & engagement
![Page 9: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Plan, Act, Observe, Reflect
An Example: 1. Plan-lesson plan (examine data/evidence)2. Act- Execution of lesson to class3. Observe-Observe students & collect
information; moderated marking 4. Reflect-resolve differences, new approach?,
offer possible solutions

Key Features of a DI Classroom
• Choice
• Respectful tasks based on curriculum
• Flexible grouping
• Shared Responsibility for Learning
![Page 12: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

TDSB Framework for Differentiation: The Teacher’s response to LEARNER NEEDS
Guided by these DI principles:
Continual Assessment
Flexible Groupings
Respectful Tasks
Readiness Learning ProfileInterests
Content Process Product Learning Environment
Teachers can differentiate:
According to a student’s:
Adapted by the TDSB from The Differentiated Classroom : Responding to the Needs of All Learners by C.A. Tomlinson, 1999
Quality Curriculum
Building Community

A DI STRUCTURE and a DI STRATEGY
What’s the difference?
![Page 14: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
An instructional strategy is used intentionally by the teacher, sometimes with all students, to achieve a specific purpose. For example:
the Exit Card – purpose is to find out students’ still-burning questions after the lesson.The Admit Slip - purpose is to determine students’ READINESS for the learning experience
![Page 15: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
A DI structure used in teaching formalizes CHOICE for students based on their:
readiness for the learning
different interests in the topic
learning profiles (how they learn best)
![Page 16: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

6 DI Structures that give choice in the products students create • Cubing• RAFT (GRASP)• Choice Board• Learning Centres• Tiered Instruction• Learning Contracts
![Page 17: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Cubing
• Use six-sided figure (cube): each face has a different task, question or image
• Students roll the cube and complete the task on the “face” they’ve rolled
• Excellent for tasks that involve different perspectives or aspects of a topic
• A great way to give students different types and levels of questions to prompt thinking
![Page 18: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
RAFT• An acronym for Role, Audience, Format, Topic• Variations: GRASP (Science), DRAFT (History)
• Students choose an option by reading across the grid to assume a role, audience to address, format in which to work, and the topic they will explore
• Great for students’ interests (especially Topic and Role) and learning preferences (Format)
• Readiness can be met by altering the difficulty of the topic or complexity of the format
![Page 19: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

The RAFT
If we’re differentiating some aspect of students’ learning, then something must be the same for all so that we can evaluate students fairly, e.g.:
ROLE AUDIENCE FORM: Opinion paragraph
TOPIC / PERSPECTIVE
DIFFERENT SAME DIFFERENT
![Page 21: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
GRASP or GRASPS (Science)• GOAL
– The goal of the person in the role (Overall Expectation)
• ROLE – The role that the student undertakes
• AUDIENCE – Who is the role person addressing?
• SCENARIO– The situation that the person in the role finds themselves in
• PRODUCT– What does the role person have to do/produce?
• STANDARDS FOR SUCCESS

22
Choice Boards
Provides students with a choice of tasks.Students select one or more tasks to completeAll choices address the same learning goal or expectation Clear assessment criteria are established Choices may be based on:
Learning preference/intelligence interest
![Page 23: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Learning Centres
• Are different instructional tasks that take place in various places in the classroom
• Can be designed for individuals, pairs or groups of students
• Tasks at each centre are varied according to student readiness, interest, or learning preference
• All tasks address the same learning goal or expectation
![Page 24: Differentiated Instruction & Technology-Day 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56815e95550346895dcd2483/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Learning Centres – Examples
• Example 1:– BLM 9.16 - “Drawing Bohr-Rutherford Diagrams
of first 20 elements”• Example 2:– Grade 9 Biology class studying the cell cycle –
Delta Secondary School, HWDSB- http://www.edugains.ca/newsite/di/divideoclips.htm
• Debrief
