What I can do
The file you provided outlines the Five Pillars of Teaching and Learning from Outwood Grange Academies Trust. Here’s how you can utilize them to create structured and effective lesson plans:
1. **Clarity of Learning Intentions**: Clearly communicate to students what they are learning and why. This involves sharing and reviewing the subject's learning journey with the students to align their understanding of the lesson objectives【4:0†source】.
2. **Re-cap and Recall**: Regularly revisit previous lessons to ensure students retain key information. This helps to reinforce memory and understanding before introducing new content【4:8†source】.
3. **New Information**: Introduce and model new learning topics with clarity. Use a variety of activities to help students develop a deeper understanding of the new material【4:8†source】.
4. **Practice**: Create opportunities for students to practice, apply, and consolidate their knowledge through different exercises, such as problem-solving, experiments, essays, or practical skills【4:8†source】.
5. **Feedback**: Provide timely and regular feedback, both during the lessons and through written comments. Feedback should focus on students' performance, address misconceptions, and offer guidance for further improvement. Encourage students to engage with the feedback through dedicated Student Response Time (SRT) activities【4:8†source】.
By integrating these pillars into your lesson planning, you can enhance learning effectiveness and help students become active participants in their education.
