Q- give an example of when you scaffolded a child's learning?
First, a teacher begins teaching at the level at which students understand, and then she builds on that understanding. She then presents the problem and thinks aloud as she goes about solving it. In the process, she shows how it's done by combining actions, images and language. She then does the following:
She repeats this process two more times, asking questions of the students along the way.
Each answer, right or wrong, receives a positive response from her, to encourage participation.
More students are asked to respond to the questions each time it is repeated.
Correction is provided as needed but reinforced positively.
When understanding appears to be achieved, students join her in solving a new problem.
Understanding is checked as they solve it. If more instruction is needed, more modeling is provided

Please suggest is it a proper answer for the question?
