What is Scaffolding? Instructional strategy that helps students connect prior knowledge and experience with new information A student’s prior knowledge may come from previous learning in a content area or previous grade level, or from previous life experiences.
Scaffolding will….. support students before, during, and after learning new concepts or skills. put ideas and concepts into context. help struggling and proficient readers engage in a difficult text.
Scaffolding helps students… better understand what they are reading and learning. build confidence as they access more challenging material. develop college-readiness skills (metacognition, problem solving, etc.). become skilled and purposeful thinkers and readers.
Scaffolding can and should… enhance the learning goal of a lesson/unit. encourage motivation for learning new material. help students transition from needing teacher/peer assistance to independence. be removed gradually as students begin to demonstrate mastery and no longer provided when students can perform the task independently.
