This scaffold address the importance of academic language, which is so important that experts assert that the warehouse of words a person has stored away is directly connected to their quality of thinking: higher quality of words equals higher quality of thinking.** In this age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the quality of thinking our students reach in our classes, will be the difference between being qualified for jobs that technology is (still) not capable of performing, and watching the world from the sidelines.

Scaffolding by Enriching the Sequencing Dynamic (Higher Education)
Knowing the sequence of events in a text, story, video, laboratory experiment, sports competition, musical composition, preparation of art materials, etc. is an essential skill for students. This is an integral part of Pre-school and Lower-Primary school lessons, but it is often forgotten in higher grades. We need to intentionally give our students the opportunities to be able to recognise and express sequences, and we need to provide the phrases they can use to clarify the ordering of events.

Scaffolding Images and Text with Mini-Cards (Higher Education)
In this scaffold, students have the opportunity to develop their linguistic and visual skills as they negotiate connections between text and images. They also interact with the information through temporal and grammatical transformations, as well as bodily-kinesthetic interplay.
We take every opportunity to expand our practice. Whenever possible, we broaden the variety of strategies we use in our classroom activities so that when our students go out into the world, they are more prepared – all because of the extra effort we put into our lessons.

Scaffolding Visual Information in Strips (Higher Education)
When we add strategies in activities that promote critical thinking, collaboration, negotiation and prediction – all through visual means – we’ve created a powerful means of presenting new ideas to our students. This scaffold technique also includes categorisation which, according to Morton Hunt*, one of the pioneers of the study of the mind, has been proven to yield educational efficiency and helps the brain process information more fluidly.
