We differentiate instruction to honor the reality of the students we teach. They are energetic and outgoing. They are quiet and curious. They are confident and self-doubting.

They learn at different rates and in different ways. And they all come together in our academically diverse classrooms.

Written as a practical guide for teachers, this expanded third edition of Carol Ann Tomlinson’s groundbreaking work covers the fundamentals of differentiation and provides additional guidelines and new strategies for how to go about it. You’ll learn

- What differentiation is and why it’s essential

- How to manage a differentiated classroom
- How to plan lessons differentiated by readiness, interest, and learning profile
- How to differentiate content, process, and products
- How to prepare students, parents, and yourself for the challenge of differentiation
