4. High Quality Questioning=High Quality Answers
Count to 5
You may have top wait for the Higher Quality Answers
Encourage all students to question- provide a framework to enable higher order curiosity

5. Modelling in the Classroom
Implicit Vs. Explicit A Fundamental tool to set standards and expectations Metacognition Thinking Verbal Communication Tasks Success

6. Implicit Modelling
Spoken Verbal Responses Use of Literacy Attitudes towards learning new things Peer to Peer Work Positive talk and ‘Hope’ not ‘Helplessness’ Showcase yourself out of your own comfort zone

7. Explicit Modelling
Model getting it wrong Model getting it right: Showcase expertise Stages/Steps to Success Teach like a Coach Demonstrate the difference between a mid-range and high quality learning Use all pupils to model to the class (not just those considered MA)

8. Motivation: Intrinsic and Extrinsic
Extrinsic Motivation: When external rewards are the dominant factor.
Short lived
Motivated by short-ranged outcome
Grades/Tests etc.
If all our pupils are intrinsically motivated they are more likely to engage with the learning, develop their pedagogical curiosity and motivate others
Intrinsic Motivation: Involves engaging in a behaviour that develops the personal desire for success
Participating because the activity is fun
Solving a puzzle as the challenge is fun
Higher order thinking as they find it interesting/exciting

9. Whilst reading ‘The Expert Learner’ (Stobart 2015), I came across a fantastic model about our ‘deliberate practice involving risk taking’, and how excellence is achieved from stepping out of the comfort zone, into the learning zone, (Colvin 2008).
