Adapting Activities and Materials to Meet Individual Characteristics and Needs

In effective instruction, activities and materials are adapted to accommodate students’ individual characteristics and needs. The teacher must be attuned to students’ unique differences and understand how to adjust activities and materials accordingly to facilitate academic success and growth. To achieve this, the teacher must incorporate a variety of activities and materials that appeal to all styles of learners. Activities and materials should provide student choice for engagement in learning and demonstration of understanding. By differentiating instruction, the teacher can effectively scaffold activities and materials to provide supports as necessary, as well as include extensions or alternate activities for enrichment. Chunking instruction, allowing extra time as necessary, and accompanying activities and materials with aids such as graphic organizers, visual representations, and anticipation guides further differentiates learning to accommodate students’ learning characteristics and needs. Conducting formative assessments provides the teacher with valuable feedback regarding student understanding and engagement, thus allowing them to modify and adjust the complexity of activities and materials as necessary to adapt to varied characteristics and learning differences.
