Differentiation: Sidney
This section should describe how you could to differentiate your lesson for learners with diverse
needs. Some ideas would be to offer differentiated solutions for English Language Learners,
students with mobility challenges, students on the autism spectrum, students with emotional or
behavioral challenges, students with auditory or visual impairments, gifted students, etc. You
should address
1. Differentiation for ability levels
● High ability learners will be able to computationally think differently than they ever have. If
this student is having too easy of a time with this, they can try to update their house or
add a background. They can also try to use the different settings on Dash to make him
talk, sing, or change color.
● Low ability students may have a harder time with comprehending coding and its idea. To
help them better understand coding they can do additional activities on code.org or meet
me in my office hours to have me explain one on one some examples and such.
2. Differentiation for demographics
● Gender, race, culture, and/or sexual identity will not be prevalent or discriminated against
while doing this activity. This activity is new for every student in the classroom.
3. Differentiation for languages
● Students with language barriers are always welcome to come to my office for additional
help. Also, the Powerpoint of Jackson Pollock will be available to the students online if
they cannot process the English quick enough.
● For Spanish speakers, this video does a good job explaining Jackson Pollock in spanish
which they also will have access to online.

4. Differentiation for access & resources
● If there are students that are unable to access computers at home, I will hold an additional
30 minutes before and after school in my office if they need to complete their Hour of
Code. Additionally, the students will only have access to Dash during the class time, but if
they need it while outside of the classroom, I have signed off at the Resource Desk in the
library to allow them to use it.
Anticipated Difficulties: Mason
One anticipated difficulty that the students could face is that they could struggle initially when
working with Dash and Blockly to draw with coding. There is a certain learning curve when trying
to frame your thinking of drawing in the sense of code commands, and it could be a difficult idea
for students to wrap their minds around. The way this lesson overcomes this difficulty is that the
rubric is much easier on the house drawing section because it is likely their first time drawing like
this. The houses do not need to be realistic, as long as they began to understand coding and get
practice with Dash that’s the main purpose of that first drawing. The same could be said for the
second sections, as it relies more on abstraction and has more room for error because there is no
wrong way to make abstract action art. That way the students can make mistakes with coding
and it still can work for their drawing. Another difficulty that could arise is conflict and fighting
amongst students in their groups over who gets to input code and control dash. One way this
could be alleviated is that each student could get equal time with the iPad in controlling Dash
with Go as well as inputting code. If the time with Dash is spread out evenly it could alleviate any
kind of fighting amongst the students in that regard.
