Mr. Rivera appreciates the huge variation that exists in his third-grade students. In particular, he observes dramatic individual differences in knowledge of social studies. He establishes cooperative groups and varies his instructional methods (e.g., using hands-on activities, explanations, skits and plays, independent research time, seatwork, field trips, and center-based assignments), trying to offer an optimal level of challenge.
