Scaffolding Reported Speech in Context (Primary)
Scaffolds that offer opportunities for verbal interactions compensate for this lack. They help students to strengthen, build and diversify language as well as to use skills they might not develop by themselves.

Scaffolding space & space exploration (higher education)
Let’s help students to consider the original motives behind space exploration – controlling direction and purpose of what is possible in space in the future. How important is that goal and is inner exploration more meaningful?

Scaffolding Synonyms and Antonyms through Translanguaging (Primary)
An important factor in translanguaging is knowing the different registers – when to use different tones, words, phrases. It’s important to know which terms are appropriate for specific circumstances. Especially in those languages (such as English) in which there is no formal or informal pronouns, register and tone transmit crucial information. To give our students an even wider prospects in their scholastic and professional lives, being comfortable with – or at least recognising – register is of the highest importance.

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 Texts through Verbal Deliberation (Pre-School/Lower Primary)
Language is the most powerful, most readily available tool we have for representing the world to ourselves and ourselves to the world.* Up until three years of age, children organise information visually. After this turning point, they need to verbalise knowledge to understand it.* Presenting activities that give them the opportunity to verbalise what they see, helps them to develop more language.
The technique uses critical thinking and verbal deliberation to make connections with what seems impersonal. Our young students will be actively dialoguing with each other while they consider images, listen to songs, or stories and this helps their brains to remain active. In this way, they’ll remember the material more deeply and for longer. The example we give here is from an art lesson, and you’ll see how you can adapt it to whatever story you are going to present.
Scaffolding Texts through Verbal Deliberation (Primary)
This scaffold helps students to become personally involved in whatever text they are asked to read. The technique includes using verbal reasoning to aid in the reading of new material – so that the reader has the opportunity to build a mental representation of the text through critical thinking and deliberation. The active dialogue while reading helps students to maintain active nodes (that might otherwise be passive), and the construct of knowledge then becomes stronger and can be accessed longer.

Scaffolding Visual Information in Strips (Higher Education)
When we add strategies in activities that promote critical thinking, collaboration, negotiation and prediction – all through visual means – we’ve created a powerful means of presenting new ideas to our students. This scaffold technique also includes categorisation which, according to Morton Hunt*, one of the pioneers of the study of the mind, has been proven to yield educational efficiency and helps the brain process information more fluidly.
Scaffolding Visual Information in Strips (Pre-School/Lower Primary)
Chunking is the strategy of breaking down material into digestible proportions in order to avoid cognitive overload and help students to transition more easily into new information. When we add strategies that promote critical thinking, we’ve created an even more effective means of presenting new ideas to our students.

Scaffolding winter celebrations & religions (Higher Education)
This scaffold helps educators to address the focus of multicultural winter celebrations. It encourages students to separate the dogma of celebrations and religions from the intention, to recognise traditional practices common in many religion (in other words, see the similarities), and to negotiate with their classmates the relevance (or irrelevance) of religions in the present.

Scaffolding with Information Wheels (Higher Education)
Using information wheels in lessons is a wonderful way of honouring our students who need to learn through kinesthetic interaction. With information wheels, your students will use deductive reasoning, negotiate meaning, activate long-term memory, and learn new subject matter, all at the same time. Because they will be interacting with information with their hands, they’ll benefit from the essential transition from social-to-exploratory-to dialogic-to presentational-and…finally…to meta learning.*

Scaffolding with Information Wheels (Pre-school/lower primary)
Using information wheels in lessons is a wonderful way of giving our students the opportunity to learn through, among other learning styles, kinesthetic interaction. They’ll be pulling from past knowledge, using deductive reasoning, negotiating meaning, and learning new subject matter, all at the same time. Studies show that learning is enhanced when students acquire knowledge through active processes that engage them. Literacy is a combination of recognising and matching oral and written language. The most effective ways of promoting literacy is to make vocabulary visible and to create high encounters with these words for your students – in interactive ways. Using wheels to scaffold vocabulary before you read a story can help. Below you’ll see how you can help your students to match words with images with an information wheel. information wheel.

Scaffolding with Irony (Higher Education)
Adding humour to a lesson is always a recipe for success. Humour changes the dynamic of the class and helps students to see their lessons with a different frame of mind. This scaffold uses irony – the highest form of humour – to help make potentially dry material more inviting and accessible.
