 * Guided Lecture**

Is a collection of terms or concepts from a reading or other activities which students are about to see or hear. Words and terms are “splashed” on a page or overhead, preferably at angles. Students come up with complete statements connecting two or more of the words or phrases. They predict how the words might relate to the reading or activity. Students then read or do the activity. Afterwards, they check their predictions against what is read, heard or viewed.
