Scaffolding for Understanding

Scaffolding for Understanding

Free

Overview

“I explain the concept, but students still struggle when working on their own.”
“Some students give up too quickly, others rush ahead and get confused.”

 

What if there was a way to support students just enough so they learn better and learn to do it themselves?

 

Join Things Education for a free 1-hour webinar on "Scaffolding for Understanding", where we explore how to provide the right support at the right time using clear modelling, guided practice and formative feedback.

 

In this session, we’ll explore the importance of:

  • Planning scaffolds that move from teacher modelling → guided practice → independent work
  • Using formative assessment to decide which scaffolds to add, adjust or remove
  • Targeting the “just-right” level of challenge using the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD)

 

This model is simple, flexible and ready to be used in any classroom, across subjects and grade levels.
Whether you’re a teacher, school leader or curriculum designer, this session will help you teach in ways that support all learners to reach independence.
