  Case: Special Case
Ms. Walker has recently had a lower level student moved into her advanced class in an effort to eliminate behavior issues with the student. However, because this is a lower level student he has difficulty keeping up with the pace of the class. He is not considered a special education student; therefore, he does not technically require any modifications. What should Ms. Walker do to ensure this student's success?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Differentiate instruction to meet the needs of that student. Teach your mini-lesson and then rotate through centers or strategy groups. Utilize the lower level student's strengths and use that to their advantage. Differentiate the instruction to either offer that student less questions or lesser challegning questions until the student becomes comfortable with the pace of the classroom. In order to not show favoritism offer different assignments in each strategy group. Then no student will think you are singling out that learner. Offer additional supports to that student, or differentiatd more simplistic vocabulary or directions, etc.
