6. Guide Student Practice

INTRODUCTION
Rosenshine’s paper suggests that teachers who spend more time in guided practice will secure higher success rates from students. This involves involving students in practising applying or elaborating material in small steps with the teacher asking questions, checking for understanding and checking for errors. If guided practice is too short, students often make more errors in independent practice.
