Block scheduling can follow many different formats, but all are designed to accommodate learner-centered teaching approaches in place of traditional teacher lecturing. One of the most powerful instructional approaches combines differentiation with formal or informal block schedules, and that is the focus of this important new book by best-selling authors Gayle Gregory and Lynne Herndon. Covering all aspects of differentiated teaching and learning in extended periods of instructional time, this book includes chapters on classroom climate; student assessment; learning styles and multiple intelligences; data-driven and standards-based lesson planning; teaching methods; and curriculum alignment. The authors provide in-depth coverage of research and best practices, offering readers more than 100 planning tools, matrixes, rubrics, templates, and choice boards.
