The WALT, WILF and TIB was very big at the school I was in.  I had seen it in use but I didn’t really use it in my last practicum.  This time though my mentor was very big on it and it helped me learn a lot about not only planning but also what I need to students to achieve during the lesson.  

WALT – We are learning to

WILF – What I am looking for

TIB – This is because

Initially I struggled with the WILF and the TIB section as I wasn’t explicit enough with what I wanted the students to achieve within the lesson.  By the end of the three weeks I was starting to nail them and this made the lesson progress really well. 

When reading other students blogs it is interesting to see that they had similar experiences to me.  Here is a link to one of my fellow classmates.
