Scaffolding Angles (Secondary)
If you have students who are more linguistic, more in touch with Humanities, more comfortable with words or music or the arts, it’s possible that they haven’t found a way to embrace numbers or see their relance in their lives. For a maths teacher or students who are passionate about numbers, this seems unfathomable. Numbers are glorious! Numbers determine practically all of our decisions (probability, fractions, percentages, etc.). How can you feel so indifferent to educating yourself about such a fascinating and useful branch of study?
Scaffolding International Turtle Day through Poetry and Philosophy (Secondary)
A children’s book about turtles is philosophical? Oh yes it is! Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss), was not just a writer of children`s books, but a profound philosopher, a poet, a political advocate (sometimes controversial), and a promoter of critical thinking on all levels.

Scaffolding Writing to Elicit Empathy (Secondary)
Writing is one of the four cornerstone skills of every inclusive educational curriculum. It helps us form our thoughts into coherent verses and communicate over distance and time. It is a skill usually approached as a way of appeasing bands for standardised exams, but, in fact, is the perfect tool to foster the development and expression of empathy.

Scaffolding with Timelines (Secondary)
We can create timelines – or use ones that are offered in the Student Books – as effective tools our students can use to categorise new knowledge through different learning styles, thus encouraging the information to pass from short-term to long-term memory. **
Timelines are used when there is a definitive focus on the concept being studied. Using them, we create a particular question our students need to answer or some situation or event that they need to understand; we can also, of course, use a queries from their Student Books. Cooperative learning is recommended because, if a challenge arises in which one student is weak on linguistics while another is weak on visual clues, they can work together to transfer their respective weakness into strengths. Previously unsuccessful students can then become successful in making sense of, and will acquire a feeling of control over, the subject matter.
