Field work task 1

Task 1-

The effective teaching principle the teacher I observed uses the principle of differentiation to reach every child in her classroom. Differentiation in schools is so important because it is important to teach diverse learners in such a diverse school. Differentiation is the concept of teaching in a variety of ways to meet the needs of all your students. There are many ways to go about this including have a wide variety of materials, different teaching methods to help the different learning styles of your students and using a variety of grouping strategies. Different grouping strategies that  Ms. R thinks is important be successful includes interviews, literature circles and turn and talks. I plan on using all of these strategies in my future classroom because I think it is very important to allow children to learn from each other. Also, she thinks it is important to allow them to work in partners because this is something they will see throughout their school careers and in life. It is important to teach students from an early age that working together is beneficial to see different aspects and ways of doing things so they know there is more than just one way of doing things. The research on differentiations is an effective teaching strategies that empowers teachers’ continued learning process because new research and studies are always coming out so it is so important to be up to date on the current findings to better help your students.
