2. The use of explicit teaching as a way to structure lessons: Effective teachers use explicit teaching to provide instruction, demonstrate concepts and build student knowledge and skills. In explicit teaching practice, teachers show students what to do and how to do it, and create opportunities in lessons for students to demonstrate understanding and apply the learning.
The first part of explicit teaching is to set goals for your lesson. Goals are a way to explain what the students need to understand and what they must be able to do by the end of the lesson. By setting learning goals (kaupapa), you are able to clarify what success looks like for a student.
The second part of explicit teaching is around 'show and tell'. This involves modelling both the 'visible actions and the underlying thinking' that is needed for learning.
The final part is making sure there is time for practice, i.e. time to practice what they have learnt over time.
NZ Curriculum: Effective Pedagogy p34-35 'Teacher actions promoting student learning: Students learn best when teachers (allow students) to encounter new learning a number of times and in a variety of different tasks or contexts'.

Use of this strategy aligns with the following Standards for the Teaching Profession (STP): Learning-focused Culture, Design for Learning and Teaching.
