After watching the workshop participants' discussion, consider these questions:
- Workshop participants' comments focused on the engagement and motivation of students in these lessons, as well as the multi-level nature of instruction. Do you agree? In which lessons did the students appear most engaged and motivated? Which lessons were multi-level, designed to meet the needs of all learners in the class?
- In discussing the importance of explicit instruction, Dr. Paratore states, "In some of these clips you saw some very good examples of not just what to do, but the how and the why." Which lessons clearly demonstrated explicit instruction? How would you make the other lessons more explicit?
