Task 1

This document provides guidance for differentiating centers in an early childhood classroom to meet the needs of students at different ability levels (Mastery, Developing, Emerging). Teachers are asked to photograph centers, document the learning outcomes they address, and identify how the resources and activities can be tailored for each level of student. An example is provided of a counting center with rubber cats where tasks are differentiated for Mastery students to sort, write, and count in more detail versus Developing students focusing on one attribute or Emerging students copying numbers or counting with number lines.
