EducationDifferentiated Instruction & Assessment4HighTeacher$ implied

A teacher struggles to provide meaningful activities for students who finish early while also supporting students who need extra help, without leaving either group behind.

Current approach of using a craft drawer or reading is not scalable or pedagogically robust; no software solution exists that automatically provides differentiated extension activities aligned with curriculum while teacher works with struggling students.
