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 Activity for Classic Literature 4: Organise Facts and Feelings Graphically
Here is a scaffold that will help your students keep track of the many characters in the story. Aside from the facts and family trees which can help enormously in following the plot, the graph encourages the students to pay attention to personalities and actions so they can make connections to them and people in their own lives – a key in engaging our students.

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 Human Rights (Secondary)
March 25th is the International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade. As educators, it’s vital for us to pass on bits of history so that even our youngest learners can internalise the injustice of what happened, in order to create more hope for the human population of today. Most history texts are written in depersonalised structures (passive tense with no recognisable narrator’s voice), and so are divorced from a tangible context that we usually need to connect to the information. Let’s add humanity and feeling to history so that our students see the connection to what happened in the past, their reality, and what they can do to make positive changes in the future.
