Developing differentiated lessons has been identified as the most targeted goal of educators working on professional development plans. There is no doubt differentiation of classroom instruction can serve all students--from struggling learners to gifted and talented students.

Break the mold of traditional teacher-centered classroom instruction and learn how to develop a responsive classroom. Differentiated instruction will move your practice from the "sage on the stage to the guide on the side." Let's work together to explore learner profiles, student readiness, and interests so teachers can differentiate the process, product, and content and reach more students more often! Participants will receive examples of differentiated lessons and strategies to take back to the classroom.

One graduate credit is available when taken in conjunction with another workshop on differentiated instruction offered by CESA 5 Center for Accountability & Assessment. Please email us at assessment@cesa5.k12.wi.us with questions.
