Rosenshine’s Principle of Instruction

The "Rosenshine Principles of Instruction" offers essential guidance for teachers on research-based strategies that can improve classroom teaching. Barak Rosenshine's ten principles are grounded in cognitive science, observations of master teachers, and cognitive supports to help students with complex tasks. These principles are designed to enhance how students acquire and retain knowledge.
Rosenshine’s 10 Principles of Instruction
​
1. Daily review.
2. Present new material using small steps.
3. Ask questions.
4. Provide models.
5. Guide Student practice.
6. Check for student understanding.
7. Obtain a high success rate.
8. Provide scaffolds for difficult tasks.
9. Independent practice.
10. Weekly and monthly review.
How to Use this Article in the Classroom
Teachers can apply these principles directly to their lesson planning and daily classroom routines. For example:
​
1. Start with Review: Incorporate brief daily reviews at the beginning of each lesson to strengthen students' previous learning and recall.
2. Small Steps: Break down new material into manageable portions, allowing students to practice each step before moving on.
3. Questioning and Practice: Use frequent questioning to ensure student engagement and understanding, and provide guidance as they practice new skills.
4. Modelling: Show students how to approach tasks by providing models and examples, giving them a clearer understanding of how to solve problems.
5. Scaffolding: Offer support for challenging tasks, gradually reducing assistance as students become more competent.
By integrating these strategies, teachers can create more effective learning environments, helping students develop deeper understanding and long-term retention.
