Differentiated Lessons for Different Needs

My students were struggling with finding and researching careers that interested them. They didn't know where to look or even what they were looking for. That's where this project idea was created. This comprehensive job search unit contains everything a student will need when researching a job. By the end of this project, the students will have: Completed a career profile.Found & researched two jobs that interested them based on career profile results.Written a paper on ONE job of interest.Comp

I created these to use weekly with my high school students with disabilities. Each week was structured (Monday mistakes, Tuesday terms using context clues, Wednesday Wise Words that ask students to infer what a quote means, Thursday thinking using prefixes/suffixes, and Friday Free for all which incorporates multiples skills such as sentences/fragments, grammar rules, and figurative language) to help keep students focused and engaged. By focusing on only one skill per day, we could dig deeper be

This two week resource is an example of how I incorporated bell work into my high school Applied English class. It can be used in a typically developing classroom or in high school for students with disabilities. As an Intervention Specialist, I would use this set format to get my students thinking about English while practicing skills they needed to be successful. Each day focused on a new skill. My students knew what to expect each day and it was easy for me to monitor what skills they were st

Being a high school intervention specialist, I have found that my students struggle with the math alternate assessment (state test); therefore, I have created a resource that goes through each type of problem that has been featured on the practice test. The first set of pages is a practice test that students complete on their own. This way, you can collect baseline on what your students already know.

I've been an Intervention Specialist for 18 years, and I've learned that I have A LOT of knowledge about how to differentiate curriculum that some of my general education colleagues may not know about. At the start of this year, my principal asked me if I would put together some strategies with usable links for my middle and high school colleagues to be able to quickly click on to find material related to 11 various differentation strategies. Some of the links take them to TpT pages with a var

I am an Intervention Specialist and use this broken down approach with my 9th and 10th graders. My co-teachers use RASC (Restate, Answer, Support, Conclude) in their classrooms also, but do not go into as much detail. This would be a great resource for upper elementary students, middle school students, as well as students with disabilities of any grade level. This RASC format has taught my students how to turn a one-word response into a minimal of four sentences. In this resource, you will rece
