As part of a larger science unit on ecosystems, this teacher in Seattle, Washington, leads her fourth graders in a field research activity outdoors. Later, she asks students to carefully observe the model terrariums they’ve built in the classroom. Using graphic organizers, the teacher then guides her students through a compare-and-contrast activity, demonstrating one way that scaffolds provide important support for the development of writing skills.
