differentiated instruction in an inquiry-based curriculum (co-planning, co-teaching
and/or observations with reflection)
? Attend grade levels meetings to support instructional and intervention planning
? Analyze evidence of student learning in partnership with teacher teams to identify areas
of need and targeted responses for students with diverse learning needs
? Assist students with specific learning profiles throughout the high school application
