Description

Shannon and Mary chat with Nancy Young, the creator of the Ladder of Reading & Writing,  about differentiated instruction for readers at different levels.      [Note: Our podcast has explicit permission from Nancy Young to use her Ladder infographic image and information with our audience.]  In this episode we discuss the equitable need for differentiation, in order to "offer children what they need based on where they are."   Strategies, examples, and activities are shared for teachers to modify their literacy instruction based on the unique needs of their readers.
