This session explores using Sternberg's Triarchic Theory of Intelligence to enhance math differentiation using the Common Core Standards. It offers practical lesson planning strategies for educators to support gifted learners through a graphic organizer. The steps include identifying learning standards, selecting intelligences, designing activities, choosing product outcomes, and assessing learning, aiming to boost engagement and understanding of Common Core Standard.
Learning Objectives:
Apply the Triarchic Theory to Lesson Planning: Utilize a graphic organizer to design math lessons that incorporate activities targeting analytical, creative, and practical intelligences.
Recognize the Need for Differentiation: Understand challenges of differentiating instruction, particularly for gifted and talented students in cluster classrooms, and the importance of addressing their practical, analytical, and creative intelligences.
Connect to Common Core State Standards (CCSS): Understand how this differentiation approach can be applied using the CCSS.
