Reflecting on our learning!

We continue to realize how important differentiation is with our students. We both have a mixture of students including the Quest students and see the value in how we pair students up. We really feel that self-direction is optimal when the grouping is appropriately done. This aides in helping guide all the kids from the low to the highest. It is so beneficial and neat to see when one of your low, struggling students gets it because of a peer and vice versa. People often underestimate the lower students, but just make a group of low students and you will see a leader take charge and others follow suit.
