    • Summary:As an elementary teacher, you know that students are different and learn differently. And yet, when students enter your classroom, you somehow must teach these unique individuals deep mathematics content using rigorous standards. Is differentiation really the answer? How can it be done well and in less time? Nationally recognized math differentiation expert Nanci Smith debunks the myths, revealing what differentiation is and isn't. In this engaging book Smith reveals a practical approach to teaching for real learning differences. You'll gain insights into an achievable, daily differentiation process for ALL students in the K-5 classroom. Theory-lite and practice-heavy, this book shows how to maintain order and sanity while helping your students know, understand, and even enjoy doing mathematics. Classroom videos, teacher vignettes, ready-to-go lesson ideas, and rich K-5 mathematics examples help you build a manageable framework of engaging, sense-making math.
