CLARIFYING MY TASK

The class is made up of different kinds of learners. They may have different ages, gender, learning styles,
interests, learning preferences and others. Diversity includes learners of all abilities and backgrounds. Teacher
must understand these differences in order to provide for a learning environment that is both inclusive and
effective.

Students may differ in the following:

 Gender
 Needs
 Strengths
 Interests
 Experiences
 Socio-Economic Status
 Race
 Creed / Religious background
 Cultural background Giftedness/ talents
 Learning Modalities/Styles: (a) Visual, (b) Auditory, (c) Kinesthetic and (d) Tactile
 Multiple Intelligences: (a) Spatial, (b) Verbal/Linguistic, (c) Musical, (d) Intrapersonal, (e)
Interpersonal, (f) Bodily/Kinesthetic, (g) Naturalistic, (h) Existential, and (i) Logical/Mathematical
 Brain-Based Learning: (a) Right Brain and (b) Left brain
According to Carol Ann Tomlinson, differentiated instruction is “giving students multiple options for taking in
information.” Teachers must be able to observe and understand the differences and similarities among students and
use these to plan for instruction. It involves these three (3) instructional components:

1. Content
2. Process
3. 3. Product

Advantages of Differentiated Instruction

Effective for varied types of learners

Can make students responsible for their own learning
More options on learning different materials Less discipline problems in the classroom
Provides more opportunities for equity and acknowledges differences

Disadvantages of Differentiated Instruction

Requires more work in lesson planning and lesson execution

Needs more time in preparation of instructional materials and instructional activities
More resource-intensive Does not coincide with standardized tests

As Practice Teachers, you are expected to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the diversity of learners and
to use differentiated activities to cater to individual differences.

REVISITING THE INFOGRAPHICS

There are three I’s and two C’s in the instructional process.

The teaching-learning process must be:

Innovative cooperative

Integrative
3I’s 2C’s
collaborative
Interactive
There are 31’s and 2C’s in Education

Innovative: Teacher’s must use a wide array of instructional strategies to make the students highly
engaged in the teaching-learning process. The strategies to be used must cater to the diversity of
learners.

Interactive: Teachers must ensure that there is meaningful student engagement in the class. All
Phase
students must participate in all the teaching-learning activities.

Integrative: curriculum is seamless and borderless. Teachers must see to it that all the learnings gained
in the classroom must have a unifying process. Each subject complements the lessons learned in the
various disciplines.

in order that you will become familiar with her/his students classroom routines, subjects, teaching strategies and

Cooperative: Deficiencies in the subjects. The use of cooperative strategies in classes will promote
unity, cooperation and teamwork between and among classes.

logical intelligence-performance tasks
involving actual life problems, whether
professional or academic, such as role-
playing exercises in connection with the
lesson.

Practice: Learning by doing and making

mistakes is more effective than rote
memory. Practice will help students
understand the subject better than
memorization alone. Minimal Lectures-
According to Classcraft, only 5 to 10
percent of knowledge is retained during a
lecture. Making classes heavily
discussion-based helps students learn.
Meaningful Information- Students who
are actively participating in the session
are more likely to retain the knowledge.
Students will find the information
meaningful by using it in their daily lives.

Students' interest and focus are increased

by providing context and examples based
on popular online content.

Often a list of the hidden
words is provided, but more
challenging puzzles may not
provide a list. Many word
search puzzles have a
theme to which all the
hidden words are related
such as food, animals, or

Competencies (MELC) prescribed by the Department of Education. You may paste/attach your

WRITING MY REFLECTION

Complete the statements given below:

Differentiated instruction benefits our learners because It might make pupils accountable for their own
education. Increase possibilities for equity and respect individual diversity. For kids with a variety of
skills, differentiated education is effective. While some young learners or students pick up concepts
quickly, others need more time to do so.

As a future teacher, I can employ the following strategies in my classes

After instructing pupils on what to perform, it's crucial to demonstrate the process in detail. When it
comes to making mistakes, I'll let my students practice their ability by spotting and fixing their
mistakes in order to understand and fix their flaws. Also, I'll provide them with performance
comments so they can gauge their progress. I always give activities and assessments that are suitable
for them and align with the learning objectives of a class so that I can see what they learn. Of course,
I'll encourage every student to participate in class to keep them interested and boost their self-esteem.
