Dr. Argüelles demonstrates in her next clip the following five instructional strategies that can be incorporated into any lesson and provide a firm foundation for learning:
- Provide a prompt – put your request of the children in context.
- Give wait time – English language learners need processing time to translate.
- Give a cue - teacher gives a signal that indicates that she is ready for the children to provide a physical response.
- Children respond.
- Teacher provides immediate feedback.
