They Are All So Different…
Children come to us in a variety of shapes, sizes, intellectual abilities, creative abilities,
inter/intra personal skills, and a myriad more characteristics that makes each child we deal with unique and special.

Diversity in students can include:
Ability (aptitude) differences Achievement differences Academic background differences—lower achievement can be due
to poor preparation and limited exposure Cultural differences—second language acquisition, interaction style
differences Differences in affect (enthusiasm level and personality) and effort
(effort vs. ability issues) Differences in styles of learning style (visual, auditory, concrete,
abstract, hands-on, written) Differences in interests Differences in preferences for products and processes Differences in self-regulation and study skills

What is differentiated instruction?
It’s teaching with student variance in mind.
It’s starting where the kids are rather than with a standardized approach to teaching that assumes all kids of a given age or grade are essentially alike.
It’s responsive teaching rather than one-size fits-all teaching.
![Page 14: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Ways to Differentiate Content
• Varied Texts• Accelerated Coverage of Material• Varied Supplementary Materials• Independent Projects• Tiered Lessons• Interest Development Centers
• Compacting
![Page 15: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Approximately 40-50% of traditional classroom material could be eliminated for targeted students.

Compacting
Assesses what a student knows and what content is not yet masteredContent not yet mastered becomes part of learning goalsPreviously mastered content is not required thereby “freeing up” time for enriched, accelerated, or interest driven activities
Renzulli & Reis (1997)
Tomlinson (1995)
![Page 17: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
When teachers eliminated as much as 50% of the curriculum, no differences were found between treatment and control groups in most content areas. In fact, students whose curriculum was compacted scored higher than control group students in some areas.

What is Curriculum Compacting?
Modifying or streamlining the regular curriculum
Eliminating the repetition of previously mastered material
Upgrading the challenge level of the regular curriculum
![Page 19: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

When once the child has learned that four and two are six, a thousand repetitions will give him no new information, and it is a waste of time to keep him employed in that manner.

How to Compact
Step One: Identify the objectives in a given unit and pre-test students to ascertain mastery level.
![Page 26: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
How to Compact
Step Two: Eliminate or Streamline instruction for students who demonstrate mastery.

Inconceivable
Should every student have an Individualized Education Plan?
![Page 31: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Ways to Differentiate Content
• Varied Texts• Accelerated Coverage of Material• Varied Supplementary Materials• Independent Projects
• Tiered Lessons• Interest Development Centers• Compacting
![Page 32: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Tiered Lessons
Varied level of activities
Designed to ensure that students explore ideas at a level that builds on prior knowledge
Prompts continued growth
![Page 33: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Why use tiered instruction?
Maximizes the likelihood that Each student comes away with key skills and
understandings. Each student is appropriately challenged. Each student avoids work that is anxiety-
producing (too hard) or boredom-producing (too easy)
![Page 34: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Developing Tiered Instruction
Think about the students who will be using the activity Readiness Interests Learning Profile
Create one activity that is interesting, requires high-level thinking and is clearly focused on the key concept, skill or generalization.
![Page 35: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Developing the Tiers
Create an activity or use a successful activity from the pastThe activity should:– Be interesting– Engender high level thinking and problem
solving– Cause students to utilize target skills to
understand key ideas or concepts
![Page 36: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Chart the complexity of the activity– Is it high skill complexity or low skill
complexity?– Who will be challenged by this activity:
• Advanced students?• On grade-level students?• Struggling learners?
Developing the Tiers
![Page 37: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Based on where the activity falls on the ladder, you can define who needs more or less challenging versions of the same assignmentClone the activity along the ladderHow many versions will you need?
Developing the Tiers

All Tiers Should
build understanding
challenge students
be interesting and engaging
be respectful
![Page 39: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Group sizes may vary
The number of groups per tier will vary The number of students per group will
vary For Example:
Tier One: Two groups of three Tier Two: Five groups of four Tier Three: One group of two

The Learning EnvironmentThe Learning Environment
The physical classroom
(3 basic settings):• Whole class meeting• Independent stations• Teacher-directed small group work
![Page 54: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
The Learning EnvironmentThe Learning Environment The “working” environment
• Provide opportunities for self-directed exploration of materials
• Establish guidelines for cooperative groups• Make groups inclusive• Ask students to reflect on their performance• Intervene when necessary• Establish a classroom conducive to student risk-taking
![Page 55: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Learning Contracts An agreement between teacher and
student An opportunity for a student to work
somewhat independently Increases student responsibility for their
own learning Provides some freedom for the student in
acquiring skills and understandings
![Page 56: Understanding the World of Academically & Intellectually Gifted](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062801/5681431a550346895daf7694/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Learning Contracts Include:
A skills component A content component A time line Specification of expectations
• Behavior• Criteria for successful completion and quality
Signatures of agreement to terms (Student and Teacher)

Consequences:
Learning contracts set positive consequencesExample: continued freedom
They also set negative consequencesExample: teacher sets work parameters
