Teaching model

The teaching and learning strategies provide teachers with models for developing learning materials for their students, which can be adapted and used in other contexts and curriculum areas.

Vocabulary building: This strategy focuses a portion of each classroom session on building a better vocabulary. Teachers invite students to identify unfamiliar words, cover the meanings in class, and use interactive vocabulary-building exercises, related to the course materials.

Writer’s workshop: The writing workshop model allows students to learn about and take part in all aspects of the writing process.

Peer response and editing: A highly valuable teaching strategy. Students are given the opportubnity to think critically about others’ writing and see the results their classmates got from a writing assignment, enabling students to learn from eathother’s strengths. In addition, teachers observe how different students learn and what strategies are the most effective.

Cooperative learning: Cooperative learning asks students to discuss a piece of literature in small groups. By allowing the students to engage in meaningful discussion, they begin to learn to analyze literature and engage in an educational process that they can take full ownership of, as opposed traditional methods.

Student-chosen texts: Allowing students to choose their own reading materials is a strategy that literacy specialists recommend as a way to develop lifelong readers. Students select material from an age and reading level appropriate book library. Following a time of solo reading, students form book club-style groups and discuss what they’ve read, followed by reflection. When successfully applied, students dive deeply into the meaning of the text, develop critical thinking, and engage in debate with their classmates about the book they selected.
