![Page 2: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
1. Provide Procedural Prompts Specific to the Strategy Being Taught
- provide specific ideas for completing the task
- name the skill - develop prompts that support the task ( e.g., Who? Where? When? Why? What? How?
question starters for comprehension tasks)

2. Teach the Strategy Using Small Steps.
-deconstruct each learning expectation to identify the sub-skills imbedded in it
- teach the sub-skills in a logical order to “build” the larger skill
![Page 4: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
3. Provide Models of the Appropriate Responses.
- models provide an important scaffold; modeling enables students to compare their efforts with that of an expert
- modeling can take place during initial instruction ( Direct/ Explicit Instruction)
- modeling can take place during practice ( Cooperative Learning, Activity Centers, Contract Learning)
- modeling can be given after practice ( Discovery Learning)

4. Think Aloud as Choices are Being Made
- think aloud strategies make expert thinking overt
- part of cognitive apprenticeship model ( Collins, Brown, and Newman, 1990)
- think aloud strategies can be used to: a) clarify difficult statements or concepts b) summarize important information c) help students think ahead

5. Anticipate and Discuss Potential Difficulties
- spend instructional time discussing and explaining potential difficulties before students start practice
- use poor examples to help students analyze why they are poor
![Page 7: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
6. Regulate the Difficulty of the Material - apply the new learning to small examples
first, then move toward incrementally larger ones ( e.g., analyze a sentence, then a paragraph, then a story)
- decrease the prompts and supports strategically as students become more comfortable with the material ( “gradual release of responsibility”)
![Page 8: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
7. Provide a Cue Card - cue procedural prompts ( e.g.,
generic questions such as “ What is the most important idea in this paragraph?”)
- use anchor charts
![Page 9: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
8. Guide Student Practice ( 3 forms)
1st. - during initial practice, provide hints,
reminders of prompts, review of anchor charts, suggestions for something that could be improved
- intersperse new material with lots of practice episodes of the incremental bits
![Page 10: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
2nd. - Use reciprocal teaching; as learning
becomes more solidified, support “fades” or “responsibility for learning is gradually released”
- Students move from being supported by the teacher to supporting each other
- Students take a more active role in ensuring that they have learned
![Page 11: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
3rd. - Students meet in small groups of 2 to
6 - They practice asking, revising,
correcting, and providing support and feedback to each other (e.g., groups of 6, then 2, then alone)
- Teacher uses diminishing support ( “gradual release of responsibility”) strategically
![Page 12: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
9. Provide Feedback and Corrections
- Teacher makes strategic use of all forms of feedback available ( teacher, other students, computer programs)
- Feedback takes many forms ( hints, questions, and suggestions).
- Group feedback opportunities are provided
![Page 13: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
10. Provide and Teach a Checklist - self- evaluation is used - teach students to ask themselves “
What do I still not understand?” to help them become reflective about their level of understanding.
- checklists are effective at any point in the instructional cycle ( before, during and/or after practice opportunities)
![Page 14: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
11. Provide Independent Practice with New Examples
- work toward having students develop automatic responses
( automaticity) - provide practice with a variety of
material so that students can see the transfer of the learning
- facilitate transfer of new learning across contexts and content areas.
![Page 15: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
12. Increase Student Responsibilities
- scaffolds are diminished after successful independent practice
- students responsibilities are correspondingly increased
- complexity and difficulty of the material is gradually increased
![Page 16: 13 Strategies to Ensure Strong Scaffolding Lloyd, J.W., Kameanui, E.J., and Chard, D. (Eds.) (1997)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072017/56649eff5503460f94c156bc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
13. Assess Student Mastery - assess learning - use a variety of strategies to assess - re-teach when/if necessary
