Case: High and Low Ability Levels and all Those in Between
I have a student that STAR tested this week with an instructional reading level on tenth grade at the seventh month. I have another student that tested on a first grade reading level at the ninth month. For a classroom with such a range in reading ability levels, does the high achieving student benefit from being a peer tutor for a student with such a low reading level or should the differentiation for the high student be on the tenth grade level? It seems that with the new student growth percentiles that this method for differentiating would be beneficial to the lower student, but would not produce the challenge needed for the higher student to meet their growth percentiles. Am I correct?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think the situation on letting a student be a peer-tutor or differentiating their material really depends on the student themselves. I have had situations where higher-level students worked as amazing peer tutors. They prompted other students, helped them through examples and the whole situation worked out beautifully. On the other hand, I have had students who, as peer-tutors, just let others copy off of their paper or got frustrated and ignored the person they were supposed to be tutoring. So, before making this decision, make sure you observe the student to see if they are fit to be a peer-tutor. I believe peer tutoring is very beneficial to both lower and higher students because it provides individualized attention and help, if the students can work together productively. |
