The document discusses teacher guided learning and the importance of guided practice in the classroom. It advocates for an "I do, we do, you do" approach where the teacher first models a skill, then guides student practice together, and finally has students practice independently. Guided practice is important because it allows students to learn from an expert and helps them practice skills correctly. The document provides examples of implementing guided practice at different levels, including whole class instruction, small group work, and individual practice, to support students at different stages of learning.

2. IntroductIon
 Best teachers help their students to become
doers too
 With their practical experience they serve as
role models.
 Like a parent, a versatile teacher who is both
mentor and role model can inspire, coach,
and motivate the next generation.

In this method students are given a
set of guidelines to follow and then
collect information and data on their
own.
It is especially limited for students
who think outside the box and need
to discover things on their own.

4. Importance of guided practice in the classroom
 “Most of all a man tends to imitate
himself. The fact that he has done a
thing once in a certain way makes it
easier for him to do it again in the
same way.
 From our life experiences we all know
the importance of practice in order
to get better at something.

 Example :the teacher may model
solving a mathematics problem using
whiteboard, interactive white board,
overhead or document camera.

phrase I do, we do , you do to I do, we
do together ,you do together ,you do
independently.
