  8. Judi – DRISCOLL ISD (verified owner)

    I really enjoyed this course. I liked that differentiation is not ALWAYS about content. Sometimes I feel in math that they all need the same content so differentiating it is more difficult. But if I can differentiate environment and with centers, posters, etc. this makes it seem more doable.

  9. Norma – WESLACO ISD (verified owner)
