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 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.

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 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 by Enriching the Sequencing Dynamic (Secondary)
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.
