5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource! August 16, 2007

By K. Price

Format:Paperback

This book is great for teachers who need simple procedures regarding differentiation strategies. It is an easy read with several reproducible activities ready to implement. Most ideas do not require look of "work" or materials.

This resource is well worth the money and has been an accent to my professional library!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is an excellent reference for classroom instructors February 3, 2012

Similar to her talks, Betty Hollis presents a practical, down-to-earth book which can be utilized in the classroom immediately. This book presents an overview and explains the importance of differentiated instruction. The information is presented in a non-threatening fashion and, in my opinion, helps the classroom teacher that DI is not "just another thing to have to deal with". The idea of being able to address the students with different learning styles, needs and levels of ability is not new (recall educators used to work in a one room building with all grades present)

The book also suggests different methods of assessing the learning process. There are a number of reproducible forms which make the implementation of DI in a classroom even more user-friendly.
