The teacher simply shows to the students how a thing is done and explains as he/she demostrate. For an
effective demostrations, it is necessary that the teacher mentions the dos and dont’s of the process for
emphasis and clarity.

It is expected that after the teacher memonstrate of a process, the students are given the opportunity to
demonstrate the process or the skill themselves. However, students should not expected to
demonstrate the process or the skill immediately on their own after the teacher has shown it. This has
to done gradually.

The Steps are:

Teacher demonstrate – “Watch me and listen to me”

Students demonstrate with teachet – “Let’s do it together”

When students can do the process by himself / herself, student demonstrate the skill or process – “Do it
as I watch”

Teacher gives more opportunity for practice for skill mastery
