The aim of this study is to analyze how some teachers in the grades 4-6 differentiate reading instruction to develop and challenge pupils' reading comprehension. This study answers the following questions: How do some teachers introduce, implement and follow up their reading instructions? How do the teachers implement scaffolding in the different stages mentioned above? What challenges may the teachers face in their work with differentiated reading methods? To answer these questions, the analysis has been based on classroom observations with three different teachers that teach in the grades 4-6. These observations have shown how the teachers differentiate and scaffold when they work with reading instruction. The empirical material was collected during observations of lessons in the Swedish subject. Furthermore, the study is based on Ann Carol Tomlinson's theoretical framework regarding funding as well as various theoretical frameworks regarding scaffolding. The results of the study indicate that the teachers differentiate their reading instruction in various ways to challenge and create opportunities for all students to participate in their own education based on their knowledge level. The teachers use varied working methods to create fellowship, differentiate in process, in content and in product and scaffold the students throughout the teaching.
