Core Components of the Framework
The Strategic Teaching Framework is organized into seven essential categories of instruction, each with its own dedicated page on this site :
- Content and Language Objectives
- Comprehensible Input
- The Modeling Cycle
- Language Supports
- Student Engagement
- Checks for Understanding
- Counterbalanced Instruction
A comprehensive document with examples and “look fors”, available on the Observation Grid page, serves as both an observation grid and a reflection tool in French and English.
