What steps does Ms. Porfirio take to prepare students for a successful retelling experience? She starts off with an interactive read-aloud where students can practice retelling the stories. From their she creates a retelling of her own that needs corrections and the students will help Ms. Porfirio correct her retell.
How does academic choice foster differentiated instruction?
It's built in and allows the teacher to work with a small group to look at their learning profiles. While the teacher is conductiong small group the other students are partner reading, independent reading, listening to audio of the story or writing. The academic choice allows the students to choose their choice for their learning style which fosters differentiated instruction.
What can you learn from Ms. Porfirio about elevating student voice in the classroom? I can learn that the use of body language is essential for various learners with certain deficits. Also, hearing what matters to my students and how they express what they have learned individually is an important part about elevating student voice in the classroom.

The differential instruction that she used during retelling was great.

I loved the academic choice where students are able to make a choice about how they will retell a topic. In retelling the story children are able to use play doh or to draw a picture to help them visualize and comprehensed the story. Students are also able to choice how they will work, is it individually or with a partner or with a group. Children are able to be the teacher and model for the teacher. This helps keep the students engaged. In the end students are happy to try something new.
