Product Description
Learn to differentiate instruction using practices that boost math mastery for all students!
Leverage each student’s unique abilities with this comprehensive guide to differentiating math instruction. The latest studies and classroom-tested best practices have been mined and are now presented in an easy-access, time-saving format that spans lesson planning through implementation.
Teachers continue to struggle with the reality that math performance varies widely from student to student, and the tactics that seem to work with one group may not fit with another. Now in one practical guide, teachers have a wealth of critical strategies at their fingertips that will help them differentiate instruction to raise student achievement in their classrooms.
New and seasoned educators alike will be quick to put the following key features to use in their classrooms:
- "Ideas From Teachers" sections that highlight actual examples of the differentiation process in action
- At-a-glance lists of "Top Ten Tactics" for successful implementation in K-8 classrooms
- "Web Site Reviews" that outline additional online resources for effective mathematics instruction
- Concrete strategies to tap multiple intelligences
Research on the value of brain-compatible teaching is combined with teacher-generated tips, including creative ways to get students visualizing, vocalizing, and moving during math-to make instruction more meaningful, motivational, and successful.

Getting Started with Differentiated Mathematics Instruction June 24, 2008
Math E. Matters (Japan)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Differentiating Math Instruction starts by providing detailed information about "the mathematical brain" and multiple intellegences as related to mathematics learning. From there, the author explains easy-to-follow plans for differentiating instruction in elementary mathematics classrooms. This book includes many strategies and activities, as well as websites worth visiting for further information. It would be easy to implement many of the strategies discussed in the book without having to read the entire book, so busy teachers should not feel overwhelmed when attempting to add differentiation to their toolkits. I would recommend this book as an excellent starting point for learning more about differentiated mathematics instruction.
