Summary
By providing an instructional sequence at the beginning of each lesson, teachers give students a road map of what will happen in the lesson.
A clear visual instructional sequence:
- keeps students more engaged and on track
- helps students understand lesson content, purpose, and objectives – what they are doing and why
- promotes a sense of predictability in the classroom
- demonstrates to students how to break bigger tasks into smaller components – a crucial organisational skill.
This practice will help students to
remember homework
understand the routine
know what to expect
work independently
