This has been an incredibly busy week for me, but I really enjoyed the low-key, no pressure opportunities that we had in class to learn about co-teaching and differentiation.  I have heard teachers talk a lot about how we need to assess our student's prior knowledge and then differentiate your instruction based on what they know, but I have been unsure exactly how I would do it in the classroom.  I enjoyed the whole process of planning our instruction, figuring out what we would assess and how that would change what we were going to teach.  It was simple really.  I don't know why I let it intimidate me so much.  I also realized that as Primary President a few years ago I would "differentiate" my sharing time lesson between junior and senior Primary.  I just didn't know that was what it was officially called!
