Student Learning Time is Maximised

Teacher, Jordan, is teaching biology. He has marked when his students need to move to pair-share in his teaching guide. Jordan teaches his class the process for pair-share activities, particularly transitioning between whole class instruction to pair-share. His students know who they are working with and what is expected during the activity. Jordan practises transitioning between whole class instruction to pair-share and back to whole class. When he teaches the lesson, the students transition quickly between whole class and pair-share and back again. After pair-share, Jordan’s students are ready to share their responses. Jordan knows they are firm and can move on to the next activity without delay. He can complete the lesson in standard time.
