Instruction: A Models Approach

by Thomas H. Estes, Susan L. Mintz, Mary Alice Gunter

This classroom-ready resource makes instructional models clear and relevant for readers by placing them within a standards-based and instructionally aligned process. A Models Approach closely links more than ten instructional models based on current research and evidence-based practice to the preparation of objectives, differentiation practices, and assessment options. The text includes scenarios of the models in both elementary and secondary classrooms, lesson plans for both elementary and secondary classes in a variety of content areas, and detailed steps for implementing the model using evidence based instructional strategies. Attention is paid to when and how the models can be used in particular contexts with specific skills and knowledge.

This book covers a variety of Instruction models for classroom teachers and step by step breakdowns of each part of the lesson, the research behind them and sample plans to use as examples. An interesting read.

super informative. This book offered a lot of helpful AND useful models from which to build your lesson plans around. Definitely something I will refer back to in the future.

A great collection of collaborative lesson plans and why they work. Includes a significant amount of differentiation and how to approach the models with different age groups. Extremely useful.
