“The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery.”
(Van doren, n.d)
Teaching is fundamentally relational, grounded in knowing students as individuals and adapting to their unique needs. By sharing our passion and knowledge with openness, flexibility, and sound judgment, we create learning experiences that go beyond academic outcomes. An open-minded approach to planning supports not only students’ growth as learners but also their development as creative, capable individuals.
This lesson sequence can be used as a foundational template through which a teacher may adapt to be specific to their school context and class. Suggested amendments may be:
-
Key administration information
-
Lesson timeframes
-
School’s overarching curriculum planning documents
-
School’s ethos and values related to learning objectives and outcomes
-
Differentiation to class abilities and skillsets
-
Alignment to teacher’s own lesson plans
