I came across a really cool app that I think would be extremely helpful to teachers in the classroom. The app is called "Diffit" which reminds me of the word differentiation which is exactly what teachers do in the classroom every single day.
This app uses AI to generate leveled work according to their needs. So a 7th grade paper could be generated into a 3rd grade reading level. A literature vocab test could be created into ten different worksheets and interactive slides. The possibilities are endless with this program!
This program seems really easy to use and free for the first 60 days. Once I went in and located our school in their list, I was able to extend our free trial out until the end of December!

Here are some screenshots of how I worked my way around their website.
The main page of the website is very easy to read. You simply enter your resources that you'd like to work on here and the grade level you need to use it for and hit generate. For this example, I worked with 7th grade Integers
On the very first page of 7th grade Integers, you'll see it has a graphic that explains integers and on the right of that graphic are a few more examples of what to use. In the right hand of the browser window you'll notice there are different ways to export this information to use in your classroom. Note: It works with Google drive and Classroom!
Scrolling down you'll see how they explained Integers in paragraph form. This is at the 7th grade reading level.
Farther down the site they talk about the key vocabulary words when talking about Integers and a summary of what was discussed above. Notice in this frame I changed the reading level to 4th grade.
Lets imagine we want to print out a document. You can pick exactly what goes on the document and then export it. In the top right hand corner of the main page where you created your Integers 7th grade level, you'll see "Print, Forms, Docs" and you can click on which one you want. I selected Docs.
This is creating a worksheet based on what was on the last page (there were more questions and writing prompts at the bottom of the page)
Here's where you can upload the document into your Google drive or right into classroom to assign it to students.
Lets say you didn't want to create a worksheet but you wanted some activities. Instead of clicking on the "Print, Forms, Docs" options, you click on the green "See All Export Options" button and come to this page.
There are so many ways to use the information that you can pick the various activities and see which one best fits your needs and it will automatically generate the information into the activity for you. There's even an option for Google Slides! You create the slides in this activity and you can open it in Google Slides or right into Classroom!
I decided to click on one of the activities and you can edit what parts go on the activity and how you want it set up to best fit your needs.
Once you've created a Diffit file, it will always be saved under "My Resources" so you can easily go back and find those activities and adjust them as needed to recreate new resources for your kids. And to make this even better, anything you saved to your Google Drive made a folder called "Diffit Resources" and is already on there ready for you to find!
This looks like a really helpful activity for classroom needs and I hope you'll look into it!
