Shownotes Transcript

Step into my classroom, where we're building a year-long scaffolding masterpiece! Join me to discuss how I'm ditching the one-size-fits-all approach and embracing a flexible support system that would make even the craftiest Lego builder jealous.

You'll discover:

  • Crafting a year-long scaffolding strategy that spans multiple skills and units

  • Parallels between Lego building techniques and adaptable learning supports

  • Reframing our role as 'matchmakers' in literary analysis education

  • Practical ways to gamify scaffolding using reality TV show concepts

Let's break the mold and create a scaffolding system that's as dynamic as your students!
