The Moment the Worksheet Hit the Trash... and Everything Changed.
Every teacher knows the feeling: you pour hours into modifying a lesson for a student who struggles, hoping to help them succeed. But what happens when that student crumples up your carefully adapted work and calls it "stupid baby work"?
This was the pivotal moment for SWSmith, a turning point that led him to question the very nature of differentiation. For too long, we've relied on strategies that simplify content and create visibly different work, unintentionally alienating the very students we aim to support. This is the hidden cost of "educational triage."
My Journey to Dignified Differentiation: Beyond the Worksheet takes you on a personal journey alongside SWSmith as he grapples with these challenges and discovers a more effective, ethical, and ultimately more joyful way to teach.
Through relatable stories and practical insights, you'll learn:
If you're ready to move past frustrated students and ineffective modifications, if you believe every learner deserves access to the best of what you teach, this book offers a new path. Written by a teacher who has been in the trenches for 30 years, My Journey to Dignified Differentiation is a compassionate, practical guide to building a classroom where every student feels capable, valued, and excited to learn.
