Differentiation by Design: Supporting All Students in ELA Instruction
On-Demand Webinar
Literacy classrooms across the country have students with a wide range of needs. Yet too often, support for those differences happens outside of core instruction. Or, after learning challenges have already emerged.
High-quality literacy instruction can change that. When core instruction is grounded in grade-level texts, rich discussion, and purposeful design, it drives growth for all learners.
What You'll Explore in This Recorded Session:
In part two of this webinar series on high-quality ELA instruction, explore instructional routines and examples from Arts & Letters™, a research-backed curriculum. Learn how differentiation can be built into core literacy lessons from the start—not added later as an intervention. Topics include:
- What literacy research says about the role of Tier 1 instruction in preventing learning gaps
- How just-in-time scaffolds and consistent instructional routines support joyful, intellectually engaging learning
- How discussion, fluency work, and complex texts strengthen language development and comprehension for all students
Whether you’re reviewing instructional materials or refining your current approach, you’ll leave with a clearer understanding of how strong core instruction supports every learner.
