Sentence Frames and Vocabulary Words: A Tip for Tomorrow from Melanie
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
There's a lot of brain work involved in written expression. This week, Melanie shares a tip to help students reduce their cognitive load, which will help them express their ideas more easily. In this tip, Melanie shares how providing students with sentence frames and a bank of vocabulary words can aid students with difficulty with word retrieval. Plus, she shares ways to shift the agency to students so they are not dependent on their teacher to do this work.
