I bet you’ve spoken the words differentiated instruction a time or two recently, huh? We know that tailoring instruction to students of varying abilities and learning styles is a daily challenge for you. With that said, may I present to you our For Every Learner series. We’ve made differentiation just a bit easier with these books. For each skill featured, you’ll get three different ways for a student to practice. All you need to do is choose the activity that’s just right for each learner. The activities are all reproducible and have fun formats with fun characters!

Take main idea and details, for example. In the first activity a student identifies the main idea in a set of sentences, circles the supporting details, and then crosses out any details that do not support it. With the second activity, a student cuts out a series of detail strips and glues them underneath the correct main idea. And for the third activity, a student sorts a set of supporting details into three sets and then writes a main idea for each. One skill—three different ways to practice it!

The books are grade-specific and cover either math or language arts skills. View the tables of contents or print the sample pages and try them out! Be sure to stop back and post a comment to tell me what you think.

Right now these books are so new that they are available only in select teacher stores. Use our dealer locator to find the store closest to you and give them a call to check availability. After March 1, they will be available to all dealers.
