- One strategy I have used was peer grouping. I think that this benefits both involved. Students who need more assistance gain clarity and support and the student at mastery concretes their learning through teaching. I also enjoy the bond it creates. If a student or students need(s) additional instruction, I will put them at one table (small group) while everyone else is on another task and go over the lesson using different material. I have also used differentiated instruction in several ways. I try to give the student the opportunity to choose from different materials they may express themselves through more comfortably. I also use two methods to help students who lack trust in themselves and without intervention will become angry and act out. I create stencils and find that tracing requires some skill building for some of my students or I play follow my finger and I will lead with my finger while the student follows behind with the pencil. These are just instruments to gain confidence until they are ready to try on their own.
