Understanding the Gradual Release of Responsibility

Course description

NUMBER OF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT HOURS:
1 hour

The Gradual Release of Responsibility model provides a roadmap for scaffolding instruction from teacher modeling to independent student application. This session examines each phase and unpacks how to plan for an explicit mini-lesson, guided practice, and independent application. Participants will explore practical strategies to determine student readiness for independence and learn how to scaffold instruction effectively so students succeed without feeling frustrated. While a recording will be provided afterward, we encourage you to join live to participate in the conversation and Q&A.
