The ability to switch perspective is essential to learning in every domain. For those who follow Deepak Chopra and his deeply rooted scientific conclusions regarding the human condition, the more effort we make in seeing a situation through the perspective of someone we are offended by or disagree with, the more we heal on a cellular level – both emotionally and physically. Students are going to read chunks of dialogue taken from various tracks.

Scaffolding Activity for Classic Literature 2: Framing Meaning with Art
Students are given artistic renditions of the story by documented artists with captions underneath in authentic language. They put the images in order according to what makes sense to them with regard to images and language. In the best practices of the Ethic of Excellence, in groups, they then exchange their artwork and analyse each other’s renditions.

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.

Scaffolding Maps & Graphs with Higher-Order Level Questions (Secondary)
Higher-order level questions – those that elicit deeper thinking – help students to stretch their thinking and engage their curiosity, their reasoning ability, their creativity, and independence. These questions encourage students to open their minds, they offer opportunities to produce original thinking.  A well-structured question sparks perspectives that might not have at first occurred to us; they encourage us to look at the issue from different perspectives. Higher-order level questions inspire fresh and sometimes even startling insights and ideas, they open roads for wider perspectives of the issue, and enable teachers and students to work together in constructing understanding. If we use effective questioning skills in the educational environment, we help our students to be more effective thinkers now and in the future.*

Scaffolding Classical Literature: Read, Remember, Rendition
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!). Presented creatively, you may find that otherwise uninterested students will happily participate in activities that review/clarify details of the stories and so be able to interact with the literature more confidently.
This activity focuses on the purity of Shakespeare’s language. Let the students roll it around in their mouths and feel the strangeness and how satisfying it is when they can finally pronounce some of the dialogue.
