Book excerpt: Demystifying Differentiation in Elementary School is an excellent, practical resource for teachers nad administrators who are ready to take differentiation to the next level in their classrooms and schools, who believe that differentiation works, and who are looking for more examples of it. There are many books available about curriculum differentiation; most of them address the theory and rationale behind differentiation adn discuss models and strategies that support it. Some offer limited examples of differentiated tasks and activities. However, few provide comprehensive collections of activities that demonstrate how to use differentiation in different subject areas at a variety of grade levels in mixed-ability elementary classrooms. Educators are asking, "Where can I find a book that has a bunch of these kinds of activities already written for me to use in my classroom?" This book answers their question by offering completed samples of Think-Tac-Toes, RAFT activities, and Tiered Assignments in various topic areas of Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies. In addition, specific standards are indicated, objectives are stated, and materials are suggested for each of the 48 examples.
