Читать книгу EL Excellence Every Day - Tonya Ward Singer - Страница 60

Why? What students say and do during a lesson is the best formative data available in every lesson, every day. Watch and listen to understand what students understand and can do relevant to your goals and to learn what next levels of learning they need. Watch to study the impact of your teaching and scaffolds so you can continuously reflect and refine your approach to reach all learners.

How? Observe students as they engage in learning. Listen to what they say and notice what they do.

 Flip to the “Observe” heading for the literacy goal you want to teach in Section IV for questions to focus your observation specific to that goal.

When students struggle, reflect and adapt your teaching to help them succeed. When students thrive, build on these successes to raise the challenge and/or reduce supports in subsequent lessons.
