Legends of Learning supports differentiated instruction by allowing teachers to assign standards-aligned content at different levels, monitor student performance by topic, and provide targeted practice based on individual needs. Teachers can also use downloadable, game-aligned worksheets available in multiple levels (Remediation, On Target, Enrichment) to support differentiated learning both digitally and offline.


What is differentiated instruction in Legends of Learning?

Differentiated instruction means adapting teaching to meet the needs of students at different skill levels.

Legends of Learning supports this by allowing teachers to:

  • Assign content aligned to specific standards

  • Adjust instruction based on student performance

  • Provide targeted practice for different learning levels

In addition, many instructional games include printable worksheets that can be used to extend learning beyond gameplay.


How can teachers differentiate instruction using Legends of Learning?

Teachers can differentiate in several ways:

1. Assign different content to different students or groups

  • Assign specific standards or topics based on student needs

  • Create different assignments for different groups

  • Target specific skill gaps

2. Use data to guide instruction

Teachers can access:

  • Standard-level performance data

  • Topic mastery insights

  • Student-level progress reports

This allows teachers to identify:

  • Which students need remediation

  • Which students are ready to move ahead

3. Provide targeted practice through gameplay

Students receive:

  • Repeated exposure to key concepts

  • Practice through interactive, standards-aligned questions

  • Opportunities to reinforce learning at their own pace

4. Use differentiated worksheets for offline reinforcement

Many instructional games include downloadable worksheets that:

  • Align directly to in-game content

  • Are available in three levels:

  • Remediation (extra support)

  • On Target (grade-level practice)

  • Enrichment (advanced challenge)

These can be used for:

  • Small groups

  • Independent practice

  • Homework or intervention blocks

5. Support flexible classroom models

Legends of Learning can be used for:

  • Small group instruction

  • Station rotations

  • Independent practice

  • Intervention groups


How does Legends of Learning support different learning levels?

The platform allows teachers to:

  • Assign grade-level or below-grade-level content

  • Reinforce foundational skills

  • Challenge advanced students with new topics

Students progress based on performance, not just completion.

Differentiated worksheets further support this by offering multiple levels of the same content, making it easier to meet students where they are.


What subjects support differentiated instruction?

Differentiated instruction can be applied across:

  • K–8 Math

  • K–8 Science

  • Middle School US History

All content is aligned to standards, making it easier to match instruction to curriculum goals.
