This section offers guidance in implementing DARE by including examples of tools educators may wish to use. These templates, presented in figures and resources, are neither exhaustive nor rigid. In other words, we suggest that you incorporate them into your existing resources, that you add to them, or that you modify them to make them applicable to your context. In our experience, teachers adopt or adapt tools that are easy to use in planning students’ learning experiences or enacting those experiences during assessment and instruction. So our advice is to remember that as you modify these templates, avoid making tools that become too complicated.

As an example, Figure P.3 provides a rationale for encouraging academic conversations among students that has been drawn from five distinct areas of learning (per Zwiers & Crawford, 2011). Many the themes presented here are recurring throughout the book. It is paired with Resource P.1, which, in this case, replicates the figure and asks you to select the statements that best fit what you do in school to promote student learning.
