RAFT
A model forplanning for allability students.
RAFT is an acronym for Role, Audience, Format and Topic.
In creating a RAFT grid: (See Graphic Organizer RAFT)
  • consider the skills and content we want to teach students individually and collectively.
  • plan to modify the content, process, or product of a student as- assignment based on student readiness, learning style, and or interests.
  • modify the assignments based on a level that ranges from simple to complex, from concrete to abstract.
In meeting the needs of all learners in a Standards based classroom, theRAFTmodel can be an effective tool to help organize differentiated assignments. The concept of the RAFT organizer has been taken from a Carol Ann Tomlinson workshop.
Begin by creating five clusters of students; this number is flexible, youmay create asmanyor as few tiers as needed, based on student readiness. Five clusters that would likely be found in a regular classroom are: 1) slowlearners, 2) below average, 3) average ability,4) academically talented and 5) intellectually gifted.
Select a theme based on Oregon State Standards. Collaborate with peers atyour grade level. Have Oregon State Standards newspapers on hand as a point of reference. Using a chart based on Bloom’s Taxonomymay be helpful in this process. (Seeexplanation and example in Graphic Organizers.) / Assignments around a class thememay be developed with the high- end learner expected to work at two to three grade levels above.

  • High End Learners:Research the planets thatyouwillpassand create a visual product that showsthe earth in relation to the other planets. (5th Grade Benchmark is to describe the earth’s place in
  • the solar system and the patterns of movement of objects within the solar system using pictorial models.)
