  How to Differentiate Instruction in a Mixed Ability Classroom ( driskellls )
This book was very helpful as I've sought to make changes in instruction for my varying exceptionalities students.
  helpful book 
the book was great. it provided a lot of ideas on how to differentiate the students and how to differentiate the students' work.
   mixed ability 
I like the book very much.
Tomlinson gives lots of examples and it is written in layman's terms so it is easy to read.
I felt the sender should have checked the book as it had post-its in it and several passages were highlighted.
  Great teaching strategy book. 
I like the theory and implementation strategies behind this book! It was easy to read and understand, too. I bought it for an education/ teaching methods course and I've used it to write every lesson plan, unit plan since. It relates to the idea that classrooms are made up of so many diverse types of learners that you must try and vary your instruction. (It's a lot like Howard Gardner's "Ways of Knowing".) It gives suggestions on how to add "difference" to your lessons. A lot of school corporations near where I live are adopting "DI" as well. It's catching on along with "Understanding by Design." Differentiated instruction works really well with Special Needs students, too. I recommend that anyone teaching these students at least read a copy of the book if not keep one for their own libraries!
