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 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.

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!!!

Scaffolding Academic Language by Identifying Visual Differences (Secondary)
Studies show that memorising academic language is ineffective in the long-term*. Students may be able to pass an exam they are studying for, but without having used the terms to analyse, compare, categorise, and defend their own ideas, most students will forget the meanings of the words as quickly as they learned them.
The solution is easy. We create opportunities for our students to use these words, terms and phrases while analysing, comparing, categorising, and defending their own ideas.
