Teachers can tailor the Equity-in-Cooperative-Learning-Groups to three difficulty levels to meet students’ needs. 

• Beginner learners (6-7 years old): Instead of text-centred tasks, focus on hands-on, physical, building, or drawing activities. 
• Advanced learners (8-9 years old): Groups of 4+, all 4+ roles assigned. The tasks require more reading, interpretation, and multi-step problem solving. They can only ask the teacher for help if all 4 members have the exact same question. 
• Expert learners (9-10 years old): Completely open-ended project tasks spanning multiple lessons. Students themselves must recognize and praise the special abilities of their peers during reflection. There can be larger groups of 6 with additional roles.
