This 9th grade Language Arts class took pre-assessment data over the concepts of an upcoming unit prior to this lesson. A Flip Flop approach was designed to address the concepts of Sequence and Fact Vs. Opinion BUT students that were close to Mastery of these concepts were provided "Challenge" activities when in a group covering that concept, while other students received small group, intense instruction. All students switched groups and had time to interact with each concept....but again, student pre-assessment data dictated how they interacted with the concepts within each station.
Mrs. Kurz instructed students on Sequence, allowing some students to do challenge extensions on the concept, while Mrs. Canada instructed students on Fact vs. Opinion and provided challenge extensions to students close to mastery of that concept. Students then switched groups.
A GREAT example of differentiation for high achieving students, as well as struggling learners!
