effort will be constantly made to ensure that the child is given the opportunity
to read task questions aloud to ensure that the task is understood and that all
new words are also understood.
Ultimately through this unit I aim to ensure that all students are constantly
moving towards the same instructional objectives (Moon, 2005, p.231). I will
constantly use formative assessment pieces in the form of tasks set such as
exit cards in order to better understand how students make sense of new data
(Moon, 2005, p.232).
How are you catering for the varying levels of readiness? Attach your activities
one page per tier maximum, as appendices.
The varying levels of readiness are classified into three levels of understanding.
Tier one focuses on students completing tasks that are based on structured
inquiry involving specific questioning. Tier two focuses on guided inquiry and
tier 3 focuses on open inquiry. All tasks have the same specific outcomes and
students will ultimately achieve these as they will progress through task at
their readiness level, therefore, engagement and motivation will have been
increased.
