A Frickin ' Elephant
Jake is 5 and learning to read.  He points at a picture in a zoo book and says, “Look Mama! It's a frickin' Elephant!”
Deep breath ... “What did you call it?”
“It's a frickin' Elephant, Mama!  It says so on the picture!”
And so it does .. “A f r i c a n  Elephant”

10. Are You Really Allowing Practice Time?
If the teacher prompts and gives feedback – but no recorded score – the activity is practice / instruction.
If the teacher records a score, the activity is assessment – not practice.
Pollock, 2007

If you teach and/or model your objectives,…
…but then immediately assign a task that will culminate in a score…
You HAVE NOT yet provided practice.
