Abstract
The underlying goal of differentiated instruction is to help students of differing abilities
and achievements levels to have equitable, not identical, learning opportunities in the
classroom. This paper explores the use of differentiated instruction in a fairly traditional
classroom setting. The students are seniors in a small, Mid-western high school. Most of
the classes and teachers were relatively predictable in terms of the assignments
accompanying them. The students in my classes were presented with an assignment that
was differentiated based on students' strengths and preferences. The discussion focuses
on whether or not the element of differentiation presented to these particular students was
successful.
