The ability to look at the unique needs of students and identify and plan differentiated instructional activities for small groups of students with similar literacy deficits is critical to student mastery of literacy skills. Through differentiating the content mastery level, the process for delivering instruction, and the product students create to demonstrate mastery of the content students with diverse needs can experience classroom success in literacy.
Part 1: Planning Differentiated Instruction
Collaborate with your mentor to plan a differentiated lesson or activity that incorporates grade level literacy and creative arts standards. Complete the “ECE-622 Differentiating Literacy Instruction” template as directed.
NOTE: You will work with the small group of students to teach the lesson/activity in Part 2 of the assignment.
Part 2: Delivering Differentiated Instruction
Under the direction of your mentor, work with the small group of students you previously identified to implement the lesson/activity and assessment you designed in Part 1 of the assignment.

Each day teachers use differentiated instructional, remediation, and intervention strategies designed to meet the diverse needs of students in their classrooms. Using knowledge of the Science of Reading, Scarborough’s Reading Rope, and research-based best practices, is a critical skill to ensure that instruction can help all students perform key tasks associated with English language arts.
Part 1: Teacher Interview
To gain an understanding of the students you will be working with and to learn more about how to apply the Science of Reading and integrate creative arts when instructing students in ELA, interview a PreK teacher. You will submit a copy of your interview notes. For the interview, focus on addressing each of the following:
Describe the literacy needs and abilities (reading, writing, speaking, and listening) of the students you typically teach.
Discuss the various literacy skills that are typically taught at the grade level(s) you most frequently teach.
Explain how you apply your knowledge of the Science of Reading, Scarborough’s Reading Rope, and research-based instructional best practices.

Describe specific instructional strategies you have used to integrate creative arts into your ELA instruction.
Describe explicit, systematic, cumulative, and multisensory instructional strategies that you employ in the classroom to teach reading, writing, speaking, and listening, and provide an example of each.
Describe how exceptionalities, including dyslexia, can affect the acquisition of reading and writing skills. Provide examples of how these exceptionalities can vary in presentation and degree within the classroom. 
Describe strategies for collecting formal and informal data and using assessments to help you make decisions about ELA instruction, remediation, and intervention strategies that are appropriate for your students.
Part 2: Classroom Observation
Upon completion of the interview, observe the teacher teaching or co-teaching at least one ELA lesson in the classroom. You will submit a copy of your observation notes. Record information related to the following:
