Episode 7 Explicit Instruction Reflection

In part 2 of Explicit Instruction, Sunny and Beth kick things off by sharing highlights from their week, before Sunny dives into her journey of using explicit instruction more deliberately in the classroom. The conversation explores how explicit instruction can look across different subject areas—including English, Science, and P.E.—before narrowing in on how Sunny applied it in her Year 10 Literature class. She unpacks how her school is working with the Victorian Curriculum 2.0, and how insights from cognitive load theory helped her deliver clearer, more effective instruction. Sunny also discusses how the Five Es instructional model guided her lesson planning, offering a structured yet flexible approach. Throughout the episode, Beth brings her wealth of teaching experience to the table, offering practical tips and thoughtful reflections that enrich the discussion. Hosted on Acast.
