I had the opportunity to take a course at St. Thomas University that explored differentiated education. I am comfortable creating lesson plans that incorporate the various needs that present themselves in any classroom.
During my time at Connaught Street Elementary School, I learned a lot about working with ESL students. At this internship, I worked with students whose families had recently immigrated to Canada and were just acquiring English as a second language.
At Connaught Street Elementary, I also had two students with Autism in my class and as a result I learned a great deal about inclusionary practices and the importance of differentiating the curriculum to meet their specific and very individual needs.
For the above mentioned reasons, every lesson plan that I created during my internship took differentiation into consideration. Below I have provided an example of a differentiated lesson plan that I created as an assignment for the course I took at St. Thomas University.
