What is differentiation in a classroom or home? Differentiation is creating and offering classroom instruction in a variety of ways to meet the needs of all learners. Each child is different, and therefore, each child learns and understands things differently. As an educator (or parent), once you realize that simple truth it becomes much more clear that you must differentiate you teaching to help fit the needs of the individual child.
No matter if you are working with SPED students, those strictly in a general education setting, or even your own children at home, you can greatly benefit from using differentiation in your approach to teaching, disciplining, and assessing a child.
