The SIC involves three successive phases: “prepare, identify and process” (Culican, 2007). Regarding SIC (Culican, 2007), the mother in Transcript One (O'Neill, 2009) encourages the child to count the number of eggs, in turn preparing the child for the task ahead. The baby begins to count the number of eggs, and the mother recognizes and confirms the baby's accurate responses. Not unlike the mother in Transcript One (O'Neill, 2009), the teacher in Transcript Two (O'Neill & Gish, 2008) also supports the cognitive learning process. In Transcript Two (O'Neill & Gish, 2008), the teacher uses the story Jack and the Beanstalk as a catalyst for preparation for learning. Initially, the teacher reads a short extract from Jack and the Beanstalk and then encourages students to respond by expressing their point of view on the information provided by the extract. Students begin to discuss their perceptions and the teacher subsequently provides feedback, often additional questions or a definitive "yes" or "no".”
