GRR Four Stages of Learning

Four stages:

1. “ I Do It”

2. “We Do It”

3. “You Do It Together”

4. “ You Do It Alone”

Fisher and Frey did not intend for this to be a step by step approach to learning where teachers start from the top teacher directed learning to the bottom student independent work.

Fisher and Frey’s intent was that all elements need to be present in each daily lesson, however the way in which a teacher implements each stage depends on:

1. student’s learning ability

2. focus of the lesson

3. learning outcomes
