الملخص EN

Differentiated instruction plays a significant role in instructional design by requiring teachers to get to know their students, identify areas of the curriculum that can be differentiated, and examine their roles in the differentiated classrooms.

In this paper, different tips will be discussed in order to prepare the educational classrooms and lessons to accommodate differentiated process and product strategies for teaching diverse students with different abilities in any educational class, such as the writing and social studies classes Classrooms have students from different backgrounds, cultures, and environments with different abilities and potentials.

These students use different ways and strategies to learn, so teachers must be aware that a strategy that works for one student may not benefit another student.

Therefore, materials, methods, and assessments must be designed to target all students in order to give them an equal chance to learn as instructional design states (Hall, Strangman, &Merey, 2003).

Differentiated instruction plays a significant role in instructional design by requiring teachers to get to know their students, identify areas of the curriculumthat can be differentiated, and examine their roles in the differentiated classrooms.

Teachers must first know their students’academic level by using standardized assessments or by reviewing the students' past records.

Also, they must identify the ways the students learn in addition to their students' interests (Willoughby, 2005).

Knowing the students' abilities will help teachers use the differentiated instruction successfully.
