Explicit Instruction

Description

Teachers use a cycle of teaching and learning defined by clear modeling, independent practice, continuous feedback, and group share. This process can be applied to any grade level or content area.

 

Application

Jeremiah Curtin Leadership Academy teachers use explicit, guided instruction during their literacy block. Students’ reading improves through learning specific skills, such as word attack and comprehension. In addition, students read the text multiple times, which improves fluency.
