1 | Goal: Deliver explicit, skill-focused mini lessons that foster students' independence and transfer of targeted teaching. | |||||||||
2 | ||||||||||
3 | Evidence of Goal Met: - Mini lesson delivery is approximately 10 minutes in length. - Teaching point is stated clearly. - Demonstration (the how to of the teaching point) is explicit and transfer language is embedded. - Students can articulate what the teacher taught and how they are trying it. - Strategies and skills taught are observed in student work. | Strengths/Readiness: - Partnerships are established with designated spots for mini lesson; - Transition to meeting area is efficient; - Structure of mini lesson architecture is observed; - Focus/engagement is high; - Teacher states and models the teaching point. | ||||||||

6 | Description of Action Steps | Intro Training: Workshop Structure, Philosophy/Research of Workshop; Mini Lesson Architecture | 1. Observe workshop; 2. Collaboratively analyze student work; 3. Share teacher and student stregnths and readiness; 4.

11 | Coaching Methods Language/ Feedback Notes | - Guided analysis of student observations and student work. "What do you notice students are doing well?" "I noticed..." "I also noticed many students showed readiness..." "Let's build off of their strengths..." - Goal Creation: "Based off of our analysis, what goal should we tackle?" "I agree, and I think we can focus the goal on student outcomes." "What do you think of ..." - Action Steps: "According to (research), (method/strategy) is highly effective at (goal); should we give it a go?" "Would you mind if I give this a try?" | - Demo lessons with voice over focusing on explicit transfer language: "Do you see how I..."; "Did you notice..." - Meet to discuss observations and reflect on next steps: "What parts of the demo stood out to you most?" "What did you observe the students doing?" "What do you feel most comfortable trying next?" "Did you notice ..." "I like that idea... and I'm also wondering..." "Would you be up to trying..." - Rehearse language of transfer to be embedded within the mini lesson. - Collaboratively plan next session - co-teach (jigsaw) the mini - whisper/lean in to prompt/coach. - Reflect/debrief on progress toward goal. - Repeat. | |||||||
