Scaffolding is a great way to engage students in a lesson from the very beginning. Scaffolding helps building skills and competences by helping learners to understand the contents and the language using different estrategies that support them to build skills and competences which will be transferred to other 


In order to make scaffolding  effectively, we should always have in mind the objective of our lesson, the students’ needs and the task sequencing, and focus our scaffolding where the help is needed to achieve intended learning outcomes.


Remember that Scaffolding means helping learners to build and develop skills and competences, and it helps teachers to attend diversity and foster creativity and autonomy within the classroom.


   “I’ve seen teachers burn out because of the effort they put into planning, so it’s important to start slowly, to take small steps, bite-size pieces and ideally work in a team –with language and content teachers.”
David Marsh: Extract from a Foreword in: 
101 Scaffolding Techniques for language and teaching and learning,
 by Donna Lee Fields. Octaedro Editorial. Barcelona 2019.











Donna Fields was at the Centro de Formación del 
Profesorado teaching the course: Scaffolding for CLIL Secondary.
