DIFFERENTIATION for Primary School Teachers (ADVICE & REAL EXAMPLES)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 июл 2024
- Differentiation means tailoring your teaching in order to meet the individual needs of a learner. Teachers do this by adapting their content, instructions, assessment and learning environment to suit their class. In this video, I share some examples of differentiation from my own classroom and some tips and tricks for new teachers that I have learnt over the years. This may be useful for NQTs (newly qualified teachers) or student teachers. Let me know in the comments how you show differentiation within your own classroom.

Some great tips, well done!
This is so so useful! I’m currently writing my letter of application for my dream school ad this has helped so much!! X
I have interviews coming up for PGCE and one of the questions I'm anticipating is about how to engage different abilities of pupils! This was super helpful, thank you :)
Well done!!!!
this is so interesting and helpful, as somebody who hasn't begun my teacher training yet I love that I can learn techniques such as this early on! thank you!
Thank you so much for this feedback! This is the reason I make the videos. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to support you. Where have you applied?
Great tips

For Teachers I LOVE your videos so much they’re so helpful! In my PGCE year, I have just been in year 3 and absolutely loved it- tricky behaviour class but was definitely a learning curve and fully enjoyed it. For my next placement I’m in a mixed YR, Y1 Y2 class which is slightly nerve wracking as I’ve only ever had experience teaching one year group at a time. Also, we are now planning from scratch all of our own lessons so I will need to really know the pupils! I love the idea of LTHC tasks and think this will play an important role in my planning, as well as what you suggested regarding child autonomy in picking their own activities for the lesson. Do you have a have any others tips for someone starting this type of placement in a small school? Thanks so much!
Hello! How is your placement going? I hope the planning expectations have reduced somewhat, or that your confidence has grown. I have some useful videos ready to upload soon that may help with your placement. Have a great 2019!
Fabulous details and information. I am delighted with your mentoring. Thank you for connecting I need the support.
This was so useful - you are fantastic! Thank you!
Thanks for this video! Also, could you please do videos for teaching tips such as subject knowledge and pedagogy for different year groups please? I really would like one for Y4 as I am starting placement in that year group next month.
Nice mam...
Another fantastic video. Funnily enough, I wrote about this topic in my Personal Statement and my interviewer was very impressed! 👍👍👍
Thank you for always taking the time to comment on the new videos. I always look forward to your messages! Differentiation examples will always help in a teacher interview ☺️ did you get the job?
@@ForTeachersChannel No problem, it's always a pleasure 😊 I haven't applying for a teaching role (yet), I applied for a BA Primary Ed degree. I received an unconditional offer last week!!
Hello! Have you begun the degree yet? Wanted to check up and see how things were going. Have a great 2019!
@@ForTeachersChannel Thanks for checking up 😊 I having started my degree yet, as I have to finish my A Levels first. If all goes well I should start in September!
In regards to what you said about the visual learners in the classroom, how would a new teacher of a class who hasn’t been with the children before know who the visual learners are? Is there a quick assessment that can be done to identify who are more kinaesthetic, more visual and more auditory etc
Hi there I thank you very much for your video. I am not a teacher yet but can you tell me what kind of initials do you use for children whose first language is not English?
Do you mean what we might call them? Sometimes EAL - English as an additional language - or ESL - English as a second language. I think there are other acronyms too! Is this what you were hoping for or am I on the wrong track with this answer? Thanks for the video support too!
@@ForTeachersChannel so sorry, typo!
What resources do you display that makes it easy for EAL or foreign speaking children to understand what the teacher is teaching?
twinkl have some resources in multiple languages. I generally just translate with the Chinese teacher at the moment though. If you want to ask the parents to help with key words, I’m sure they’d be happy to share their knowledge! Especially if it will help their child to succeed in the classroom. Where do you teach?
@@ForTeachersChannel thank you for getting back to me I don't teach but have worked with in education as a support staff for a while mainly in secondary but have had some experience within primary and wondered how they dealt with lesson planning for children whose first language is not English- at the moment it's predominantly Spanish and polish speaking children that I have come across and I wondered how you got around that.
Hi!
I have a question! Where do we find info on the students who have special needs or accommodations? In the United States these students have IEP or 504's! Is there something similar in the United Kingdom?
Amelia Leach we have an EHC Plan - Education, health and care plan :)
Thank you to Gemma below for helping to answer, yes children have care plans in the UK too! Right now I am teaching in Hong Kong so using a different system. Are you on placement currently or qualified? Either way, I hope you found the information you needed. Have a great 2019!
Thank you for providing this and for supporting others on this channel! x
how do I cite you?
I also primary school teacher.i like your video
Fantastic! Welcome to the community. Where do you teach?
I love the idea of differentiation. I feel like we are not there yet in Poland... We want to group students from the earliest age: better reading group, lower reading group, intermediate maths group, lower level maths group... I feel like once you are in that "lower maths group" hardly any child ever gets out of it.. It's stigmatising in my opinion. Of course it is easier for teachers but are teachers there for students or students for teachers? I feel like we often confuse that unfortunately :( What I hate the most is pretending that giving funny names to the groups will not make students feel worse or better - even Y1 students are able to realise that these are nothing else than better and worse groups - no matter what name you will give them...
I completely agree with you. I remember being in ‘saturn’ group for maths and being very aware of Saturn being the ‘low’ group. Shame really because I was really good at shape, space & measure.. I just struggled with calculation and theory! But what does Poland do well? There must be something that each country can share. I have friends who teach here from Poland and I feel as though they’re very knowledgable about education ☺️
@@ForTeachersChannel We have some very good teachers, well educated etc, however the system kind of kills that. That's why there is a huge need for good teachers in Poland now - good teachers try other things than teaching at school. I did not even plan to look for a job in public school to be fair.
How is your job application journey going? Wanted to check in and see if you had had any success!
