How can teachers meet the needs of diverse learners? How can teachers structure activities so that children with varying abilities can participate?
Teachers have extensive training and ongoing professional development. The process of meeting the needs of a wide range of learners in the classroom is called “differentiated instruction.” In this kind of classroom, learning environments are carefully and deliberately designed to address the diversity of learning styles, levels of readiness and interests within any group of children. The curriculum is varied with multiple entry points, and multiple learning materials to address a range of learners. Flexibility is a hallmark of a differentiated classroom, what is taught, how it is taught, and how learning is assessed are done in different ways depending on the strengths and needs of the learner.
