People sitting at a wooden table and sculpting clay to make small sculptures, in a workshop or class setting.

  • Direct Instruction (I do, you watch) — The teacher models the skill and provides foundational knowledge.

  • Guided Practice (We do together) — The teacher scaffolds the learning, stepping in to offer hints and correct mistakes.

  • Independent Practice (You do, I watch) — The learner takes the lead while the teacher observes and provides high-level feedback.

  • Mastery (You do, I step away) — The learner internalizes the process, troubleshoots their own problems, and no longer needs the teacher’s guidance
