With DI, we as teachers can help meet the needs of all of our students by differentiating by interest, ability or learning style. Interest level learning environment engages children.  

Teachers know that when students are interested in a topic, they put in more effort, retain more information and connect what they’re learning to prior knowledge.  It helps motivate children to learn.

DIGITAL TOOLS CAN BE USED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF LEARNERS THROUGH DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION

Differentiating by readiness means tuning into your students’ varying degrees of ability

in order to create activities that match their skills and level of

understanding.

At the same time, we want to challenge them to move beyond their learning comfort

zones to even greater success.
