Mr. Wilcox has just finished a mini-lesson on making predictions. While his other students work on a prediction activity independently at their seats, Mr. Wilcox will work with several small groups in turn. According to the recommendations made in the textbook, Mr. Wilcox should now
 
  a. have his first group move to the group table, and give directions to the students who remain in their seats.
  b. go over the instructions for the prediction activity with the whole class, and get them started on it before calling his first group.
  c. move to the group table, get those students started with their activity, then get back up, give directions to the remaining students, and circulate among them to see if they have questions.
  d. have all students get up and take a break before moving into the next activity.

Question 2

The textbook describes two models of instructional activity, one with four steps and one with six. The main benefit of the one with six steps is
 
  a. content development can be split into two pieces so student attention is maintained more easily.
  b. recitation is eliminated, which is good because it serves a very limited purpose.
  c. the teacher can dispense with whole-class examples and practice, which erode student engagement.
  d. the teacher has fewer transition points to manage.
