This is the first course in a series of two courses, namely,
Getting Ready to Differentiation and Differentiation II. This course explains
how a teacher can understand their students better and use that information to
teach students even though they might be very different.
Thank you for embarking on this journey. This course falls under the
category Classroom Instruction. Getting Ready to Differentiate is a Level 2
course. Through this course, we will learn what differentiation is, why it is
an important method of teaching to ensure ALL children in your class is
learning and how to be prepared to execute it in the classroom. Differentiation
is not a strategy or a set of strategies. It is a mode of thinking that a
teacher uses to ensure that they can cater to the learning of every student in
their classroom.
