What I can do
The Five Pillars of Teaching and Learning focus on enhancing effective teaching and supporting students' learning and self-regulation. These pillars are key elements that underpin effective teaching and learning, and are used to structure lesson plans. Here's an overview of the pillars based on the document:
1. **Clarity of Learning Intentions**: Teachers share with students what they are learning and why it’s important. This includes sharing and reviewing subject learning journeys【4:0†source】.
2. **Re-cap and Recall**: Regularly revisiting prior learning to ensure students retain key information from previous lessons【4:8†source】.
3. **New Information**: Introducing and modeling new learning in lessons connected to the topic questions shared at the start. Various activities are developed to enhance students' new understanding【4:8†source】.
4. **Practice**: Providing regular opportunities for students to practice and consolidate their understanding. This could involve answering questions, solving problems, writing essays, or performing skills in practical subjects【4:8†source】.
5. **Feedback**: Offering timely feedback during and after lessons, focusing on student performance, addressing misconceptions, and guiding further development【4:8†source】.
This structured approach aims to engage students actively in their learning and helps teachers effectively plan and deliver lessons.
