### Understanding the Five Pillars of Teaching and Learning
The Five Pillars approach used by Outwood Grange Academies Trust is designed to enhance effective teaching and support students' learning and self-regulation. Here's a breakdown of each pillar:
1. **Clarity of Learning Intentions**:
- Teachers clearly share learning objectives with students and explain why the lesson content is important. This also involves sharing and revising the broader learning journey of the subject with students【4:0†source】.
2. **Re-cap and Recall**:
- Regular review of previous lessons is emphasized to ensure students retain important information【4:8†source】.
3. **New Information**:
- New learning is introduced and modeled clearly, connecting to the lesson's overarching question. Various activities are designed to help students understand and engage with new concepts【4:8†source】.
4. **Practice**:
- Ample opportunities are provided for students to practice and consolidate their understanding through various methods such as answering questions, problem-solving, and performing skills【4:8†source】.
5. **Feedback**:
- Feedback is provided regularly during lessons and through written comments. This feedback focuses on student performance, addresses misconceptions, and offers guidance for improvement. Students engage with this feedback through Student Response Time (SRT) activities【4:8†source】.
These pillars are central to structuring lessons that foster active student participation and encourage them to become active partners in their learning journey【4:0†source】.
