He notices that while students seem to be doing well constructing the ornaments from precut pieces of paper, they are having a hard time cutting any pieces on their own. He realizes that while he went over in detail the processes of folding and constructing the ornaments, he did so with paper he had prepared by precutting. What should he do to make the process easier for the students? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Mr. Mercer could pause the lesson to model how to cut the paper or possibly teach it in the next art class and allow students to complete their current work. He could also work withe the classroom teacher to give students the opportunity to practice cutting paper in the classroom and then addressing directly it in the next art class.
