be delivered?
• If possible, have a task waiting for them as
they ‘enter’ the class

• Give them a great starter –

• Share the lesson objectives, demonstrate

high expectations
Olufunmilayo Tubi, formerly da-Silva
• Do the students know (i) what they are doing (ii) why they are doing it? Can they
see the point – do they know the ‘bigger picture’? How do the 4Cs come in?

There needs to be:

•A challenging level of subject knowledge

•Active, collaborative learning – this is crucial as students should be able to work,

be on task, ‘without adult supervision
• Choice of activities or of approaches to them - creativity
• Lots of higher order questions (which you don’t answer for them) critical thinking
• Visual aids and practical activities – creativity, collaboration and critical thinking
• Marking that is really a ‘feedback for progress’ (assessment for learning)
Olufunmilayo Tubi, formerly da-Silva
• You also need:
– Pace, routine and well practised transitions.

• To facilitate the learning

• To differentiate within the lesson
• To use strategies to improve literacy (using key words and connectives
• To encourage competition (especially good when teaching boys)
• To encourage group work/collaborative learning
• To use questioning well to cater for all – high order when appropriate
• Incorporate thinking time

• Review learning during the lesson – (not just at the end!)
