Scaffold timelines using the Gradual Release Model
Activity: Value Line
Instructional Considerations
Backward Assessment Model Gradual Release Model
1. Identify learning goals
2. Determine acceptable
evidence and assessments
3. Plan learning experiences
and instructional methods.
1. Direct Instruction
”I do it.”
2. Guided Instruction
”We do it.”
3. Collaborative Learning
“You do it together.”
4. Independent Work
“You do it alone.”

Stage 1 – I Do• Multi Flow Map –Cause Effect• Correct/Incorrect
Stage 2- We Do Together• Multi Flow Map• Correct/
Incorrect
Stage 3 – You Do Together•Side by Side Circle Map•Perimeter24 feet/ Area 24 square feet
Stage 4 You Do Alone•Flow Map•Relating Factor: This drawing represents the area of a garden that is.... because I used this equation...
Pre Assessment: Stacked Bridge
Pre Assessment: Stacked Bridge Precision- square feet/feet Difference between area/perimeter Multiple equation formulas for perimeter
Stage 1: Direct Instruction “I Do”
One of these students is correct. Which one?
Students can keep the effect throughout their discourse and change the outcome if their partner(s) make convincing arguments in the causal relationship.
Stage 2: Multi-Flow Map “We Do Together”
Stage 3: Side By Side Circle Map “You Do
Together”
