alice-teacher Fast and slow, good and bad

[Gamez, Enrique A (3012)]

I would enlist the fast learner as a teacher's aide to help the slower students.  Who knows, that student may "talk" the slower learner's language better as a peer to help bring them up to speed.

My students also have a range of abilities. For an assignment I have a basic set of requirements I than add to the assignment multiple challenge components this allows for differentiation

Hi,

I've got a group of 12 students (pupil) in age range between 13 and 15 y.o. One is extremely fast and clever, one is extremely slow and not clever. Both are big enthusiastic about working with Alice. I'd like to figure out what do you, as teacher recommend me, or what is your advice how to work with both? My workshops are not mandatory and without marks.

Thanks for advice.

Matjaz
