Byrdseed.TV is a library of lessons, projects, and investigations that you can use directly with your students. You can just press play. It’s all planned for you.teachers can use directly with their advanced students. They can just press play. Everything is planned for them.
And we aim high. We know that there are students at every school who could not only meet this year’s standards, but could meet next year’s standards too, if they were given the chance. It’s just that no one ever checks.
But we don’t chase the impossible idea of asking teachers to run three tasks for every single lesson (on-level, struggling, and advanced)! We aim high to begin with, and then scaffold down as necessary. Even students who might be labeled “struggling” have the opportunity to go as far as they are able. They are not artificially restricted to a low-level task.
And these lessons are in a format that is dead simple to use. They’re videos, broken into individual steps. Teachers can just press play – or students can run through them independently. We’ve planned everything out. It’s an actual solution to differentiation.
We know that some folks work in self-contained classrooms, some are pull-out teachers, some push-in, some offer only enrichment, some even work remotely. Byrdseed.TV is purposefully flexible to meet your needs.
However, Byrdseed.TV is best suited for those who teach multiple subjects and work with students in grades 3 through 8.
