Intentional Teaching Requirements
July 28, 2016
Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.

In The Intentional Teacher, Ann Epstein provides this description of the requirements of intentional teaching...
"Intentional teaching requires wide-ranging knowledge about how children typically develop and learn. Teachers must have a repertoire of instructional strategies and know when to use a given strategy to accommodate the different ways that children learn and the specific content they are learning. At some times or for some content, children seem to learn best from child-guided experience - that is, they acquire knowledge and skills mainly through their own exploration and experience, including through interactions with peers. At other times and for other content, children learn best from adult-guided experience - that is, in planned situations in which their teachers introduce information, model skills, and the like."

The Intentional Teacher (both editions) has been one of my top go-to books since its initial publication. The Child-/Adult-Guided continuum is an excellent framework for understanding how teachers teach and children learn best.
