As a learning support co-teacher I witness most lessons have a routine of :
homework check with students or teacher at board followed by questions
introduce lesson through examples
teacher led practice
independent practice
At times I have attempted to encourage problem based activities in classrooms. Normally it is only accepted by the content teacher when there is “sufficient time” after lessons are completed. I will acknowledge that the teachers are often surprised at the level of engagement during these activities and will occasionally ask that I identify possible activities for future lessons.
