Teacher-guided: Top-down approach
The focus must be present
What is the purpose of the lesson for student learning
This is where teachers model how they have approached a problem or situation
Emphasis on metacognition
Thinking about thinking
Why we do this and how
Teacher model approach
Teachers must use “I” statements
Students may add in to the teacher, however it is important at this stage not to assume that all students understand how to interact with the learning engagements. Some students may not need modelling, even if others do.
