Differentiation

Based on Iready scores, students are assigned levels within the Amplify program (see attached guide). In addition, students with IEPs are assigned
additional guidance regardless of level in order to provide further support. The levels are assigned by the instructor but can be adjusted accordingly.
In addition to the levels, over-the-shoulder conferencing is used in order to accommodate students’ individual needs.

: For this lesson, the Universal Design for Learning approach is used in order to accommodate the varying needs of students. Students will first hear
the passage read aloud before students reread and answer the questions., Students will complete activities in pairs., In periods 2,6, and 8, the activity
will be completed as a whole group. Instructor will point to the displayed text and call attention to the words that help identify the answers.
