What I can do
The Five Pillars of Teaching and Learning used at Outwood Grange Academies Trust, which you can incorporate into your lesson planning, include:
1. **Clarity of Learning Intentions**: Clearly sharing with students what they are learning and why. This includes sharing and reviewing subject learning journeys with the students.
2. **Re-cap and Recall**: Regularly revisiting prior learning to ensure students remember key information from previous lessons.
3. **New Information**: Clearly introducing and modeling new learning, with activities that facilitate the development of new understanding.
4. **Practice**: Providing regular opportunities for students to practice, apply, and consolidate their learning. This could involve engaging in tasks such as answering questions, solving problems, conducting experiments, writing essays, or performing skills in practical contexts.
5. **Feedback**: Offering regular and timely feedback both during and after lessons. This feedback should address students’ performance, misconceptions, and provide guidance for further development【4:0†source】【4:8†source】.
You can apply these principles to design lesson plans, ensuring that each pillar is integrated to enhance effective teaching and support student learning.
