Providing Instructional Support through Guided Play


Description
Participants earn 0.5 CEUs upon completion of this course.

Many teachers struggle with the CLASS® Instructional Support Domain. This course shows teachers how to provide instructional support (concept development, quality of feedback, and language modeling) through guided play. Guided play creates a developmentally appropriate context for teachers to use instructional support strategies to increase learning.

It is recommended that participants take Exploring the Promise of the Classroom Assessment Scoring System ® (CLASS) before taking this course.

Upon completion of this course participants will receive a COMPLIMENTARY PACKAGE called Frame Their Learning (FTL) Pocket Chart System designed to support CLASS®. The course will demonstrate how to use the FTL Pocket Chart System to provide instructional support.
