Scaffolding Strategies

Scaffolding Strategies

Scaffolding is a high-yield instructional strategy that empowers all students to meet grade-level expectations, regardless of their starting point. By breaking lessons into manageable learning chunks and pairing each with targeted tools or supports, teachers reduce frustration, build confidence, and promote success, even when students face complex skills or concepts.

This learning experience highlights the proactive use of Scaffolding Strategies, not as remediation, but as a framework for equity and acceleration. Grounded in six core principles of scaffolding, participants will learn to design lessons that anticipate struggle points and provide timely, strategic support while maintaining high expectations for every learner.



When Scaffolding Strategies are intentionally aligned with Learning Goals and informed by formative assessment data, instruction becomes both inclusive and rigorous. Teachers cultivate classrooms where students are equipped to persevere, think deeply, and move toward greater independence and academic success.
