Band-aid "Reason Behind Differentiation" Activity: http://saylorslog.blogspot.com/2011/08/differentiation.html?m=1 (have to open at home- blocked at school) *HIGHLY recommend this one! I've done it in the past with Kindergarten and 1st graders, but I think all grades would take from it! Great for Morning Meeting!
