Multi-Level Assignment Differentiator

Pro v1.0.0 1 view

Generate 3-5 versions of any assignment at different complexity levels while maintaining identical learning objectives. Saves teachers 2-4 hours per week on differentiation work.

What You Get

Transform any assignment into multiple ability-leveled versions in minutes instead of hours, with professional scaffolding for struggling students and meaningful extensions for advanced learners.

The Problem

Teachers spend 2-4 hours per week manually creating differentiated versions of assignments for students at varying ability levels. This includes rewriting content for struggling readers, adding scaffolds for IEP and ELL students, and creating extensions for gifted students—all while ensuring identical learning objectives are preserved.

The Solution

Analyze any assignment to identify core learning objectives, then generate 3-5 complete versions at different complexity levels. Below-level versions include appropriate scaffolds (word banks, sentence starters, step-by-step breakdowns, visual supports). Above-level versions include meaningful extensions (higher-order thinking questions, real-world applications, analysis and synthesis tasks). All versions maintain standards alignment and include teacher notes with grouping recommendations.

How It Works

  1. 1 Gather assignment details including original text, grade level, subject, and number of versions needed
  2. 2 Analyze assignment to identify core learning objectives, essential vocabulary, and standards alignment
  3. 3 Design scaffolding strategies for below-level versions (word banks, sentence frames, chunked steps, visual supports)
  4. 4 Design extension strategies for above-level versions (analysis questions, real-world connections, multi-step complexity)
  5. 5 Generate all versions with clear labeling and professional formatting
  6. 6 Add teacher notes with grouping recommendations, implementation tips, and time estimates

What You'll Need

  • Original assignment text or detailed description
  • Grade level and subject area
  • Number of versions needed (typically 3-5)
  • Target ability levels or reading levels
