Differentiated instruction is balancing success and challenge for each student by focusing on their needs and strengths. Teachers build background knowledge and vocabulary, assess learning, and provide flexible grouping and assignments tailored to students' readiness levels. Strategies include structured teaching, movement activities, graphic organizers, and giving choices in assignments through menus, bingo, or RAFT techniques to demonstrate understanding based on interest and skills.
