Author: Ahmad Danial



Answer:

1. Modelling - an art teacher demonstrates drawing with two-point perspectives before asking students to try a new drawing on their own. 2. Think-alouds - a physics teacher verbalises her thinking as she solves momentum problems on the board. 3. Questioning - after modelling and thinking aloud, the same physics teacher "walks" students through several problems, asking them questions at critical junctures. 4. Adapted instructional aids - an elementary physical educations teacher lowers the basket while teaching shooting techniques and raises it as students' skills improve. 5. Prompts & cues - preschoolers taught that "the bunny goes around the hole and then jumps into it" as they learn to tie their shoelaces.
