Managing a Differentiated Classroom [CLO: 4].
Differentiated instruction will require students
doing different things at one time. In order to
effectively differentiate your instruction, the
classroom must be orderly and flexible. This
means that students are aware of your
expectations and structure, but they have the
freedom to work according to their individual
learning needs.
Take a moment to review the following video on
a third grade teacher differentiating her
instruction for a science lesson: Content

2. After reviewing the video, answer the following
questions:
♣ How does this teacher lead students and
effectively manage her classroom? In what ways
was her instruction differentiated? Be specific.
♣ On page 168, decide which of the four
classroom environments this teacher exhibits
based on teacher management beliefs and styles
(dysfunctional, adequate, orderly-restrictive, or
orderly-flexible). Provide a rationale for your
opinion with evidence from the text.
♣ How does this teacher adhere to and
implement the seven basic principles of leading
students? Give examples to support your
opinion.
Be sure to utilize the text to support your
assertions.
Guided Response: Review several of your
classmates’ posts and respond to at least two.
Ask students to share their thoughts about what
area they may struggle with most with regard to
managing a differentiated classroom. Be sure to
respond to any queries or comments posted by
your instructor.
