Hi Michelle and thanks for the reply :) I read the document and it does reflect differentiated assessment :) And no, it cannot be applied to many activities - especially those related to language learning. Students in upper grades need to be able,...

Michelle commented on Cristina Milos's blog post 'Differentiated learning/teaching'
Christina- I'm new to the Ning! and hoping to continue having a connection to other teachers who are at IB schools or use inquiry learning. I've just be transferred to a new school that is not inquiry based school-wide. I'll share my idea, but wel...

A Message from Inquiry Teaching and Learning

Previously this was a private ning which started as a result of a teacher task team' on "inquiry teaching and learning". It was intended to be a way for us to communicate our findings, thoughts, and ideas. That has now changed. We have opened the site to public, hoping that this will encourage more participation in discussion and a wider range of ideas.

If you decide to join this Ning, please add some information about yourself, eg. your work and where inquiry teaching and learning plays a role, grade levels you teach, countries where you live etc. Also, please feel free to invite friends and colleagues whom you feel would benefit and/or share similar information that could enhance inquiry in a classroom. - Thank you all in advance for your contributions :)

Differentiated learning/teaching

Hi everyone,

I finally have more time to focus on this ning as the school year is over.

What I would like to hear about is how exactly you use it in your classrooms, what are your best experiences in this regard, how you could do it without enough resources, how often do you feel you really make use of it etc as differentiation occurs on th… Continue

Inquiry - I.T. - Blogs - Blogs? What is a Blog?

Hi Everyone,
You all know I try to keep up with "What's hot" in I.T. (especially when it comes to Mac's - smile), but this is not a Mac thing! This is about using I.T., Blogs in particular, within the primary classroom. I found this great 'Wiki' resource through the http://pypthreads.ning.com/ that some of you are familiar with. Soooo! if you are hesitant to use I.T. within your classroom as a tool -which will no doubt promote inquiry- brow… Continue
