Sequence Learning/Rote Learning

Steps of a Lesson Plan:

1.       Anticipatory Set:  Gets the student aware, and anticipating what the lesson will be 
2.       State the Objectives:  Stating what student will be learning
3.       Teacher Input: Describes the content
4.     Modeling: An example is presented 
5.    Check for Understanding: Checking to make sure students are understanding what is being taught. 
6.     Guided Practice: Teacher helps students if they need it when they are learning the lesson
7.    Review/Closure: Brief summary of what the lesson was 
8.     Independent Performance:  Independently, student will perform tasks given on their own over the lesson

     Rote Learning: 

         Rote is a strategy that is used for repeating something by repetition. A teacher may use a song, or music activity and break it into sections using the beginning first. The teacher sings, or performs  one line at a time for the students to repeat after him/her. After each one of them, then the teacher adds another. Eventually the whole song will be sung, or performed with whatever the activity may be. The teacher will probably do the activity as a whole for the students as a demonstration and the students will do it as well just as the teacher did. The teacher may need to make changes, or help students if portions were forgotten. 

Importance of Sequential Learning:

        This form of learning is very important for students. What happens with this form of learning is something will be at the beginning and multiple things will be added on. Then students are abel to learn things easier when there is a set order. Students are able to use this form of learning with many different things in school that will help them further down the road. This may make things easier for them if each portion is in a specific order/sequence.
