The following is a reflective checklist that can be used to selfevaluate your assessing and planning in order to differentiate instruction so that the needs of your students will be met. This checklist is to assist you in your continuation of “best practices.” All checklists will serve as a planning tool for our Quality Review, collegial walkthroughs and administrative walkthroughs. These behaviors should be a part of your daily/weekly planning.
