Written as a practical guide for teachers, this expanded 3rd edition of Carol Ann Tomlinson's groundbreaking work covers the fundamentals of differentiation and provides additional guidelines and new strategies for how to go about it. You'll learn What differentiation is and why it's essential How to set up the flexible and supportive learning environment that promotes success How to manage a differentiated classroom How to plan lessons differentiated by readiness, interest, and learning profile How to differentiate content, process, and products How to prepare students, parents, and yourself for the challenge of differentiation We differentiate instruction to honor the reality of the students we teach. They are energetic and outgoing. They are quiet and curious. They are confident and self-doubting. They are interested in a thousand things and deeply immersed in a particular topic. They are academically advanced and "kids in the middle" and struggling due to cognitive, emotional, economic, or sociological challenges. More of them than ever speak a different language at home. They learn at different rates and in different ways. And they all come together in our academically diverse classrooms.

Teaching Reading to English Language Learners: Differentiating Literacies, 1/e This practical, research-based book blends theory and practice to provide grade-level and ESL teachers with the tools they need to differentiate literacy instruction for ELL students. KEY TOPICS: Organized around the major findings from the National Reading Report, the book addresses a critical national need for teachers to have new and better information on how to address the literacy needs of English language learners. The authors address the need to move the field beyond the current one size fits all' paradigm toward a broader view of how to create meaningful and relevant literacy programs. They stress meaning and relevance as the basis for all instructional activities and strategies: if meaning is at the center, it is not necessary to delay literacy instruction in English while students are learning to understand and speak English. The chapters in the book detail a concrete and specific way how literacy instruction can be--and needs to be--truly modified for ELLs.
