Planning and Preparation
Planning and preparation is what we do before we enter the classroom. This part of B-SLIM includes knowing what resources can be used and where they can be found as well as how to adapt and develop resources to fit what is being taught. During this stage, scaffolding is also an important consideration for planning activities and materials. Pacing should be considered including the cognitive capacity of the learners. When selecting and developing activities, teachers also need to think about the diverse learning styles, multiple intelligences and backgrounds of their learners.
