Westphal, a gifted education and science consultant, offers differentiated instruction menus for the secondary physics classrooms, to allow for student choice and address different learning preferences. She explains how to use menus in the classroom, different types of products in the menus and guidelines and expectations for each, and rubrics for evaluation, then provides menus related to motion, forces, energy, and waves, which include introductions to the menu and its objectives, materials, special notes, time frames, and suggested forms, as well as the content menu and specific activities.

- Features attractive reproducible menus and rubrics.
- Is based on the levels of Bloom's revised taxonomy.
- Incorporates different learning styles.
- Makes incorporating choice into the classroom stress-free for both teachers and their students.
Topics addressed include motion, forces, energy, momentum, and waves. These menus can be used to guide students in making decisions as to which products they will develop after studying a major concept or unit.
