Sequencing is a concept that needs to be repeated throughout the education process. 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. It might be motivating to know that studies show that students are able to recall information more accurately if they´ve been schooled in sequencing.

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 Texts in Thirds (Secondary)
This scaffold presents one technique you can use to combat this human tendency of laziness – of relying on memory instead of working actively to further knowledge. We use here a social science lesson on global migration, and you’ll see how you can adapt it to any lesson you’re about to begin.

Scaffolding Challenging Terms and Academic Language
Developing new academic language can be challenging for students in any language. If the terms or vocabulary are intrinsic to a successful interaction of the task, we need to make a bit of extra effort to give our students support so they feel more confident about their understanding and usage of the language. Scaffolding techniques can help students bridge gaps so that they can engage in challenging units with more ease.
This scaffold integrates images and linguistics giving students support in different learning styles. They learn the parameters of a term experientially, using vocabulary that is provided, discerning differences in images and paying close attention to details in the information given. Critical thinking, multiple possibilities for recognising truths, and verbalisation will engage your students in a powerful collaborative activity towards new knowledge.

Scaffolding Classical Literature with Tabu
Many ESL teachers will questions the importance of teaching and using classic literature in their classes. We probably all agree that it is not easy to teach in its authentic form as it demands a high level of language proficiency and maturity for any student, and especially students those whose home language is different from that of the class text.
Nevertheless, through varied techniques, the reading of authentic classic literature is an incredibly enriching experience (although your students may not appreciate or admit this until years later!). Gamify the learning and you have students begging for more!!!
