Differentiated instruction is a teaching philosophy based on the premise that teachers should adapt instruction to student differences. Rather than marching students through the curriculum lockstep, teachers should modify their instruction to meet students’ varying readiness levels, learning preferences, and interests. Therefore, the teacher proactively plans a variety of ways to ‘get at’ and express learning.- Carol Ann Tomlinson

Whenever a teacher reaches out to an individual or small
group to vary his or her teaching in order to create the
best learning experience possible, that teacher is
differentiating instruction.
