Before selecting the student to answer.
And then select a student after at least 50% of the students raise their hands or make eye contact
Of randomly selected students, avoiding those who may give a wrong answer.
Direct Instruction

Is fast paced
Uses highly structed curricula.
Uses frequent informal assessment.
With DI one strategy for fostering maintenance is to
Include in lessons skills previously learned
Students who are asked question during DI are
Teacher-selected, largely at random
In a DI program, fast-paced scripted lecturing and choral responding
Provide an abundance of learning opportunities
Choral responding
All the above:
Enables the teacher to frequently monitor the performance of each student.
Provides a high rate of practice for each child.
Promotes group cohesion
Which of the following are you most likely to hear from a direct instruction teacher?
Everyone… what sound does the letter “b” make?

Tell students what they will learn, show them, lead them, have them do it, correct errors, closure/summary, independent work
One strategy used in DI to reduce frustration and encourage successful learning early in the program is to
Ensure learners encounter appropriately challenging material by using a brief placement test.
DI programs begin with
A brief placement test
A DI strategy for ensuring that all students are learning and weak areas are addressed is to conduct
Frequent assessments
