Media Reviews
Full of good ideas and strategies for differentiation. I like the way the authors emphasize the idea of teaching to a specific benchmark or objective rather than letting the text determine what students do and learn. -- Kathie F. Nunley, Educational Psychologist
In my extensive experience with differentiated education, I have not seen a work on lesson planning that is as compact, concise, and creative as this one. -- Joseph Staub, Resource Specialist Teacher
I was relieved to read this book. My faith in our ability to refocus on what good teaching requires is renewed. I will keep this book close as I plan and execute my lessons. -- Rosemary Traore, Assistant Professor of Urban Education
The sample lesson plans are great! Teachers need a guide to assist them in making sure they are differentiating instruction correctly. -- Thea H. Williams-Black, Assistant Professor of Elementary Education
