Complexity of Task: The task is a

novel application of a grade-level appropriate concept and is designed so that the outcome is not guaranteed (a

chance for productive failure exists).

Page 12: Gradual Release of Responsibility

Joint attention to tasks or materials Students are interacting with one another to build each other’s knowledge. Outward

indicators include body language and

movement associated with meaningful

conversations, and shared visual gaze on materials.

Grouping: Small groups of 2-5 students are

purposefully constructed to maximize individual strengths without magnifying areas of

needs (heterogeneous grouping).

Before the September 29th Dept. Meeting, submit a lesson plan to your Dept. Head that you implemented in your classroom that contains all four components of the Gradual Release of Responsibility (GRR). The lesson used may be a multi-day lesson.

You can use the Gradual Release of Responsibility Lesson Plan Guide bookmark to assist you in planning.
