In this episode we examine The Gradual Release of Responsibility Model (GRR)  and how to include it in our lessons. The 'I do it, WE do it, YOU do it' (IWY) allows us to slowly relinquish the responsibility for our learners' successful performances helping them to 'flu solo' with confidence.

“As Teachers we should be ready to let their learners fly-solo  with confidence … knowing that we will always be there to catch them if they fall”

In this episode we examine VARK Learning Styles and how maybe, as teachers, we've been using them the wrong way all along? We examine how we should adopt a 'Multimodal' approach to addressing the learning styles of our learners when creating lesson content.
