Differentiated Tools and Strategies to Support RTI in Language Arts/Social Studies
Presenters

Kathy Glass (Primary)
Glass Educational Consulting
Description
Kathy Glass—President of Glass Educational Consulting and author of Lesson Design for Differentiated Instruction—will explain how Response to Intervention (RTI) provides a roadmap for implementing differentiated instruction (DI) in the language arts or social studies classroom. She will define differentiation and share several practical DI tools, strategies, and assessments, such as: engaging instructional strategies for all learners, tiered instruction, Role-Audience-Format-Topic (RAFT), exit cards and dialectical journals. Ms. Glass will also share differentiated assessments and address how teachers may formulate differentiated assessments that allow students to demonstrate knowledge in a way that highlights student achievement. Participants will leave with an inventory of differentiated ideas and products to share, use, and/or adapt immediately in a language arts or social studies classroom.
This webinar will be particularly useful for 3rd - 10th grade language arts or social studies teachers, department chairs, curriculum designers, and those who support RTI.
