Differentiation: M will only have to fill out a few lines; she should be able to participate in the class discussion. If she is struggling after the lesson, I will sit with her to make sure she understands. L will participate in the discussion, if he is having a bad day will not be expected to write out everything but sitting and talking with him should prompt him to at least write a few things down. F will be able to do everything if she has the computer in front of her so she can take her time in filling out the questions. She will need more time than anyone, so could see about the possibility of her taking two classes to complete this assignment.
