Blog #6

Please find someone's blog in the other class (not your class, the other one) and read their blog about the hero unit. In YOUR blog, tell me whose blog you are discussing, and then tell me what you learned or confirmed about differentiation from reading that idea for the hero unit. Don't critique the idea; just tell me what you learned or confirmed about differentiation.

I am discussing LaChelle Lewis' blog. She talked about the body biography assignment and differentiation was definitely a part of this concept. The students made a poster in the end of the unit and that allows freedom to be creative on each student's part. They can show what they learned in different ways and the teacher would be able to assess the student's learning and understanding of the unit when it is ended this way.

By placing them in groups too, the teacher can place the students in groups that will best benefit them as well as help them. When they present the posters, the teacher will be able to see how the groups worked together and each individual's understanding of the hero unit.

This was a great example of differentiation and I think it would work really well with the Hero Unit!
