Presenting Instructional Content: Scaffolding | Postwork – Early Childhood

This postwork will utilize the same lesson as your Lesson Internalization and Effortful Thinking postwork from previous sessions. Directions: This postwork includes two parts.

1. Draft an introduction to new material. 2. Rehearse your introduction to new material.

Lesson Context

Link to Lesson EngageNY – Kindergarten – Module 4 – Lesson 8

Objective or Learning Target Model decompositions of 7 using a story situation, sets, and number bonds. Students decompose the number seven in put-together situations of number pairs using story situations, objects, sets, arrays, and numerals.

Part 1 Directions:

1. Building off of your postwork from Presenting Instructional Content: Introducing New Material, incorporate two scaffolds into your double plan. Remember to include any explicit instructions for using the scaffolds you have chosen.

● Hint: Copy your INM double plan, paste it in the table below, then add your scaffolds.

Remember the key elements of effective scaffolds:

1. Purposeful Alignment to the Learning Goal ● The scaffold must be anchored to the lesson’s objective—not just busywork or unrelated

support. ● It should target a specific barrier to understanding (e.g., unfamiliar vocabulary, background

knowledge, or complex reasoning).

2. Cognitive Load Reduction (Not Elimination) ● Scaffolds should lighten the load, not do the thinking for students. ● They reduce distractions or secondary challenges so students can focus on the

to-be-remembered content.

3. Tool for Effortful Thinking and Discourse ● Scaffolds should support—not shortcut—thinking and talking about math.

2. Download this document as a PDF and submit it in Submission #2.

Part 2 Directions:

1. Rehearse your full INM double plan with the scaffolds. 2. Record your video directly into Canopy.

Double Plan

Teacher Actions Student Actions

Description of the activity, what the teacher says, and does. (Write WTD directions for student engagement.)

What is an exemplar of student response? What should they be saying and doing?

Purposeful Alignment to the Learning Goal

Unusable Submission

No Attempt or Action

Scaffold is unrelated to the learning goal or lacks clear instructional

purpose.

Scaffold somewhat aligns to the learning goal but addresses a general

rather than specific barrier.

Scaffold is mostly aligned to the learning goal and addresses a

relevant barrier with some clarity.

Scaffold is tightly aligned to the learning goal and directly addresses

a clear, specific barrier to student understanding.

Cognitive Load Reduction (Not Elimination)

Unusable Submission

No Attempt or Action

Scaffold increases cognitive load or distracts from core learning.

Scaffold slightly reduces cognitive load, but may oversimplify or

under-support.

Scaffold appropriately reduces distractions and focuses attention on

content, with minor adjustments needed.

Scaffold effectively reduces cognitive barriers while preserving effortful

thinking about the to-be-remembered content.

Tool for Effortful Thinking & Discourse

Unusable Submission

No Attempt or Action

Scaffold does not promote student thinking or discourse.

Scaffold may prompt limited thinking but lacks opportunities for discourse.

Scaffold encourages effortful thinking or discourse, but could better support depth or access.

Scaffold clearly promotes effortful thinking and student discourse about

rigorous, aligned content.

some room for polish.

Uses all delivery elements confidently and intentionally;

demonstrates polished teacher presence.

Uses anchor chart (analog or virtual)

Unusable Submission

No Attempt or Action

Anchor chart is unused or irrelevant during rehearsal.

Anchor chart is referenced but the purpose or clarity is limited.
