Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

A dedicated, experienced educator team created this resource to support your Groundhog Day Writing lessons. 

If you have a mixture of above and below-level learners, check out these suggestions for keeping students on track with the concepts: 

🆘 Support Struggling Students

Help students who need help understanding the concepts by completing the slide deck as a whole group activity, rather than an independent study project.

Pair struggling readers with buddy readers to assist in the reading portion of the activity.

➕ Challenge Fast Finishers

Challenge your fast finishers to complete our Groundhog activities independently, then turn their learning into a classroom anchor chart, poster, or informational writing.
