Differentiated Lesson Plans Instructions
You are to create 1 lesson plan addressing the same theme (chosen in your project proposal). This lesson need to incorporate specific differentiated instruction within your teaching of the concept as well as the practice of it. Remember that the key to differentiation is not everyone doing the same thing, but learning the same concept by differing your instruction and practice. This means that you must include many different options for your students. For example, if you are teaching the parts of a plant cell, your students could be creating a skit acting out the different parts of a cell, producing a commercial describing the parts of a cell, sketching the parts of a cell, visually representing the parts of a plant cell using craft supplies, or producing a research paper addressing all parts of a plant cell. For this concept, all students are mastering the parts of the cell but in different ways. All activities must be presented with enough details so that a substitute teacher could teach from the plan. Use the provided template to complete your lessons.
