Presenters

Description

Kathy Glass—President of Glass Educational Consulting and author of Lesson Design for Differentiated Instruction—will explain how Response to Intervention (RTI) provides a roadmap for implementing differentiated instruction (DI) in the language arts or social studies classroom. She will define differentiation and share several practical DI tools, strategies, and assessments, such as: engaging instructional strategies for all learners, tiered instruction, Role-Audience-Format-Topic (RAFT), exit cards and dialectical journals. Ms. Glass will also share differentiated assessments and address how teachers may formulate differentiated assessments that allow students to demonstrate knowledge in a way that highlights student achievement. Participants will leave with an inventory of differentiated ideas and products to share, use, and/or adapt immediately in a language arts or social studies classroom.

This webinar will be particularly useful for 3rd - 10th grade language arts or social studies teachers, department chairs, curriculum designers, and those who support RTI.
