Spreading The Word Of Knowledge By Doing It Our Way
The Snail method
A method that is going to be use in each theme
The snail method
The snail method is a method there is going to be use i every theme i every science class. A theme goes over three weeks.
Within three weeks there are distinction between, Joint construction, Independent control and Modelling. Under each subject there is field, tenor and mode.
The field refers to the topic being developed in a particular context, along with the subject-matter
The tenor in any particular context refers to the roles taken up by the various participants and the relationships between them.
The Mode refers to the channel of communication in any situation – oral, written, or multimodal. Each of these modes plays a different role in the learning process.
Week for the snail methods
The first week is the joint construction with is for experience and retain
Building Field Knowledge
* Generalized the professional stuff
* What is unfamiliar about the professional stuff
* What is the technical about the professional stuff
* The student are taking field notes
* Going on a exclusion to get the knowledge
Varying The Tenor
* The teacher is the expert
* The teacher is the guide
* The student is the co- participant
* The student Explore, observe and records
Shounting Between Modes
* Reading
* Being strategically and critical
* Doing interpreting and composing
* Making multimodal text
The second week it is independent control with is for experimenting
Building Field Knowledge
*How can the student look abstract at the professional stuff
* How can the student look concrete at the professional stuff
* Doing a classification
Experimenting
Varying The Tenor
* The teacher is the responsive mentor
* The student is an independent learner
* The students as Scientist
Shounting Between Modes
* Crafting well structured text
* Doing drafting and revising
The third week it is modelling which is for read and listen academically as well as write and speak professionally
Building Field Knowledge
* How is the professional stuff use in the everyday
* What is familiar about the professional stuff
* What is particular about the Professional stuff
Varying The Tenor
* The student is an active participant
* The student is a apprentice
* The student is the explorer
Shounting Between Modes
* The students are making models
* The student group present their knowledge
* The other students are listening attentively
* The students are asking and being responding to each other

Learning by doing: A pedagogical principle believing that the best way to acquire a skill is to use it in practice.
Cooperative learning: An educational approach which aims to organize classroom activities into academic and social learning experiences.There is much more to Cooperative Learning than merely arranging students into groups and it has been described as "structuring positive interdependence”. Students must work in groups to complete tasks collectively toward academic goals. Unlike individual learning, which can be competitive in nature, students learning cooperatively can capitalize on one another’s resources and skills (asking one another for information, evaluating ideas, monitoring work, etc.).Furthermore, the teacher's role changes from giving information to facilitating students' learning. Everyone succeeds when the group succeeds.
The Zone of Proximal Development: Often abbreviated as ZPD, is the difference between what a learner can do without help and what he or she can do with help. It is a concept introduced, yet not fully developed, by Soviet psychologist Vygotsky.
