    I loved how detailed she was on everything and giving us sites to find things she mentioned.

  2. Amy – BOERNE ISD (verified owner) –

    Great course! Please remember to click on “Resources” in the upper right corner for the handout- I didn’t! :0
    I have some great tools to take back to the classroom!

  3. Joan – NORTH ZULCH ISD (verified owner) –

    I think this was good in showing teachers that some of the things that they already do, IS differentiation. I think I was expecting there to be more A-ha moments. I love the resources and websites because I do not not feel I have lots of time to research this.

  4. Christina – UNITED ISD (verified owner) –

    I enjoyed the presenter’s “get to the point” approach when it comes to thinking differentiation means more time.
