For this look at differentiated instructional strategies, this video takes place at East Elementary School in Kansas City to visit the classroom of Stephanie Kerr. Mrs. Kerr is a second year teacher and this year is teaching in an ESL classroom. She has found that the way she groups students for learning activities can greatly enhance the effectiveness level of her instruction. When grouping students, she considers not only their instructional needs but their emotional and personal needs as well. She will use several instructional strategies including encouraging selfevaluation and critical thinking, accommodating multiple intelligences, and providing for multiple learning styles.
