Hallmarks of a Differentiated Classroom Trait #1
A Strong Link Between Assessment and Instruction:
These two traits, assessment and instruction, are very well connected. If there is no instruction you cannot assess. If there is no assessment then, how will you know if your instruction is a success in helping students to learn?
The teacher continually assess student knowledge, understanding, and skill in both formal and informal ways. I think that it is important to make sure that you plan to assess before, in between, and after teaching a lesson.
Making ongoing adjustments to instructional plans to ensure progression toward individual and group goals. It is so so so important to make sure that each student is learning and understanding what is being taught. While you are assessing before and during make note of any adjustments that can be made to help any student understand.
This shows me that you understand this hallmark, and how critically important it is. I will be hoping and hoping that you find ways to remember this... when the stresses and pressures of day-to-day teaching feel like they are pulling you down. You can DO it! 3 pts.
