What is differentiated learning and how it will work in my classroom...

"Differentiating instruction means creating multiple paths so that students of different abilities, interest or learning needs experience equally appropriate ways to absorb, use, develop and present concepts as a part of the daily learning process. It allows students to take greater responsibility and ownership for their own learning, and provides opportunities for peer teaching and cooperative learning" (Theroux,2004).

Identifying each students individual learning style, as well as, identifying each students predominant multiply intelligences will make for an easy transition into differentiated instruction. All three of these methods have the same goal, to zone in on each students individual learning strategy and focusing lessons that encompass those qualities. By tailoring these lessons to each students style, it helps put the student in control of their own education and encourage success.
