  Case: Differentiating Assessments
Mrs. Brown is a second year 6th grade Language Arts teacher who is having trouble figuring out how to differentiate assessments. How can she differentiate assessments effectively for her students?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Mrs. Brown would likely benefit from taking an inventory of her students by analyzing data from state tests, classroom tests, learning styles and intelligence inventories, and through classroom observations. Once she has collected and analyzed this information, she will be more able to determine what types of differentiation would meet the needs of her students.
