Scaffolding by Sequencing Key Information (Secondary)

Sequencing? Easy! Alright – then let’s make it verbal, more sophisticated,  include critical thinking, negotiation, images…and, yes – in higher education – FUN!  Sequencing is an integral part of Pre-school and Lower-Primary school lessons, but it is often forgotten in higher grades. We need to intentionally give our students the opportunities to be able to recognise and express sequences, and we need to provide the phrases they can use to clarify the ordering of events. Here are the steps to do it in a lively, collaborative way that will introduce key information so the rest of the lesson goes fluidly.
