 | Dr. Jella Tin, I understand you are an expert of "anticipatory sets". Could you tell us what those are? | |
|
| Well, Donna, an anticipatory set is a brief activity or discussion to help prepare students for the content that they are about to learn in a lesson. It's like a "hook" to grab their attention. | |

| Dr. Carl Weathers, could you tell us about another lesson component? | |
|
| Sure. Another component of a lesson is "checking for understand"ing. This involves a teacher monitoring the comprehension levels of their students throughout a lesson by doing things like asking questions and watching them perform new skills. | |

|
| And could you tell us about the fourth lesson component Dr. Fred Schneider? | |
|
| Well this one is called "lesson closure." It involves having a distinct and effective conclusion to a lesson to give students a chance to reflect on their learning. It can be a something like a brief assesment or asking questions about the lesson. | |
