Great leaders who positively impact students' life!

It is a really good teaching strategy to enhance students to learn well and master what they learn.

What I took away from this video, is that DI is not supposed to be completed all at once. Focusing on concentrating on 3 or 4 low preparation items and selecting one high quality item per marking period, will assist me in creating a DI classroom.

Greatest .....

[@mistyespinosa1231]

This is fantastic; however, I did not hear the HOW in this video? You state that you all collaborated and your plans were successful. You stated that you came up with extra time for them to master skills but I did not see or hear where or how the DI comes in.

Please stop the music in these videos. All it does is compete with the person speaking.
