The Best of Corwin series showcases key chapters from critically acclaimed Corwin publications for a powerful compilation of perspectives on important education issues and topics. In this collection, current research on the most effective differentiation practices for teaching students at all levels of proficiency in literacy, mathematics, and science is brought alive through the many strategies and classroom examples from prominent authors Topics covered include:

  • Reading and writing: A comprehensive array of models for differentiating reading instruction, an approach to gradual release of responsibility to accelerate progress, and multi-tiered writing instruction
  • Mathematics: Support for both low- and high-achieving students, including interventions and challenges, and the implementation of RTI in math instruction
  • Science: Models and methods for increasing student achievement through differentiated science inquiry

From the differentiation of content to the differentiation of instructional methods to the pacing of material to meet different students' needs, everything you need to begin and master differentiated instruction is right here!
