This website is intended to be an introduction and guide to differentiation. Much like a carpenter's toolkit provides the tools necessary to be efficient on the job, this toolkit is designed to help teachers be more effective in the classroom. While the toolkit was intended for secondary teachers, the activities can be adjusted to fit almost any content and grade level. It was designed by and for teachers and includes many resources to help increase the amount of differentiation used in your classroom.
Here are the three main sections you'll find in the toolkit:
READY - This includes the research rationale for differentiated instruction and links to helpful resources.
SET - This includes learning styles and student surveys, and a brief introduction a variety of ways that you can differentiate in your classroom.
DIFFERENTIATE - This includes templates where you can design your own units and complete differentiated units that you can use in your classroom. If you have a unit that you're willing to share, ask for it to be included here.

The website also provides links to other sources which I have found to be especially helpful for incorporating more differentiation and a forum to ask questions or suggest edits.
