Tasks:
As a result of principal observations and walkthroughs, a small
percentage of teachers are implementing differentiated
instruction. A large percentage of teachers feel that classroom
behavior and/or management makes this a struggle. Also,
many teachers expressed that student remediation is needed
to better prepare students for grade level learning. Materials
such as listening centers, supplemental and comprehension
resources, Scholastic Reading Skills Kits have been earmarked
to ensure implementation of our goal of differentiation and all
students reading on grade level.
Walt Whitman teachers use differentiated instruction to meet
specific student learning needs based on ongoing student data
(Compass Learning, Read 180, DIBELS, Benchmark Data,
C.A.R.E, and Thinking Maps). Teachers collaborate regularly
with Staff Development Teacher, Librarian, Math, Music
Instructor, Special Education, and Fine Arts teachers.
