Activities in the classroom
Many activities can be adapted to suit each stage
in the learning framework, by changing the type
of questioning, resources or method of recording
every student in the classroom can be playing the
same game or working on the same activity.

• Use this time to investigate the activities that
  are on display. On your hand out there are a
  number of different ways to play each game or use
  the resource. Decide what stage in the learning
  framework the activities are designed for.
  Remember that to move students on to the next
  stage in the framework, they must be working on
  activities at the next stage (eg/ perceptual
  students complete figurative activities)

Adapting an Activity Across the Framework

• There are many activities that can be extended or
  simplified to suit the range of needs within a
  class. Students can be participating in the same
  games / activities but have them modified to suit
  their stage within the learning framework.
