How does the Scaffolding Strategy improve student outcomes?

Are you looking for effective strategies to address the diverse needs and readiness levels of your students, particularly when they are one or more grade levels behind?

Teaching students of varying backgrounds, experiences, and readiness levels is one of the most challenging aspects of being an educator. It is often compounded when students come to class one or more grade levels behind.

When students receive the support they need to be successful during grade-level activities and assignments, their confidence builds to try more complex and challenging tasks. Their confidence and ability are bolstered by the success that comes with proper support. Scaffolding strategies provide you with the support tools that you gradually taper off as students master new knowledge and skills.

Accelerate Learning with Scaffolding can transform your instruction with an approach designed to meet the immediate learning needs of students, while staying aligned with grade-level learning goals.
