Demonstration Teacher Observations Process Feedback Completion Chart
“The most powerful form of learning,the most sophisticated form of staffdevelopment, comes not from listeningto the good words of others, but from sharing what we know with others.
Learning comes more from giving thanfrom receiving. By reflecting on whatwe do, by giving it coherence, and by sharing and articulating our craft - ourknowledge, we make meaning, we learn.”
Roland Barth
Agenda
Welcome/Introductions Base Group Activity Workshop Objectives Learning Styles Essential Elements of Instruction (EEI) Lesson Design Observation/Conference/Assignment Closure
Remember…
Facilitating effective groupwork begins with students learning to appreciate one another on a personal level.
Time spent on warm-ups and teambuilding reaps rewards as students begin to value one another as unique individuals.
BASE GROUP ACTIVITY
SPEND ABOUT 3 MINUTES EACH SHARING:
• Classroom Rules/Consequences• Back-to-School Night Experiences• Organizational Tips (record)• Positive Experiences• Present Concerns
JOBS Recorder Reporter Time Keeper Encourager
WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES
The participants will explain how the Essential Elements of Instruction form the basis for the decision making process.
The participants will recognize, diagnose, and analyze those effective practices which they presently use while designing lessons to refine or add appropriate skills to their repertoires.
Workshop objectives continued
The participants will explain the components of lesson design in order to consciously include or exclude those elements in a classroom lesson.
Using the specified components of lesson design, the participants will plan and practice teaching lessons which will be utilized in a classroom.
INDIVIDUALIZED LEARNINGThree Major Research Assumptions
A) Everyone has the potential to learn the next thing past what he/she already knows.
B) Everyone needs different assistance and stimulus.
C) People learn with different modes and different strategies.
Learning Style Delineator
Who has completed this document previously?
Compare your findings to the descriptions in your packet.
Use a colored dot on your name tent to indicate your findings (according to the color coding slide).
In what ways could you determine your students’ learning styles?
How could you use them in your planning?

Teaching is now defined as:
“ A constant stream of professional decisions made before, during, and after interaction with the student, decisions which, when implemented, increase the probability of learning.”
Discuss in your base groups:
How do you personally define teaching? What does your lesson planning
process look like? How far in advance are you able to
plan? What might be your decision making
model?

EEI, Frameworks, and Lesson Design
How does it fit in with Lesson Design?
Frameworks: What is it?
It is a framework that contains aspects of a teacher’s responsibility that are documented by research that promote improved student learning.
It is a road map for novice teachers. It is a structure for improving instruction. It outlines 22 critical components of
successful teaching practices committed to equity, developmental appropriateness, inclusion, and high expectations.
Frameworks: Features
Applicable to all teaching situations Comprehensive, public, general NOTNOT a checklist of teaching behaviors NOTNOT an endorsement of a particular
teaching style or organizational style Dependent on context Allows for diversity in demonstration
Frameworks: Assumptions
Derived from research Reflects a new paradigm for learning and
teaching that is grounded in a constructive approach to learning
Focuses on a purposeful nature of teaching Creates a community of learners Recognizes the role of appropriateness in
making decisions Asserts that teaching is a profession
Frameworks: Uses in Pennsbury
Self-assessment Supervision –
means to improve instruction
Observation Evaluation
Before leaving tonight…
Work together in your base group to correctly match the parts of lesson design with the appropriate descriptors.
Submit your matches as your Ticket-Out-the-Door. Be sure to leave your name tents on the table. Be sure to add the scheduled observation/conference
to your personal calendar (this is your only reminder). Sign the Demonstration Teacher chart if you have
already completed your observation/conference. Be sure to clean up your area. Remember to bring your binder back next session!! Bring a lesson plan for a recently taught lesson to the
next session.
Welcome Back…Session B!
Get yourself situated in your base groups (as per the provided name tags).
Help yourself to refreshments. Be sure to verify the appointment calendar
and alert me to any necessary changes from last session.
Review the Lesson Design graphic. Take out the lesson plan you chose to bring
today.
How was your week?
Catch up with your base group members…– How was your week?– How were you mindful of
learning styles?– Did you use base groups
at all?– Any new good news or
areas of concern to report/share?
– Any new organizational tips to share?
Class Meetings
Why? Gets kids involved in
constructive decision-making in their classrooms/schools
Builds a climate of trust and respect between teachers and students, as well as among students.
Helps to build self-esteem by getting kids involved in decisions that impact their world.
Class MeetingsRationale
Students often develop a better sense of responsibility when given a chance to make meaningful contributions to the world around them.
When children believe they are contributing to the school environment, they feel a more positive attachment to school and are more motivated to learn.
Students who are allowed to problem solve are likely to buy into the solutions.
Benefits Class meetings can achieve
similar results as family meetings.
Class meetings provide children with opportunities for assuming responsibilities.
Class meetings may help children to take ownership for their actions by involving them in the process of understanding and questioning rules, guidelines, limits, and consequences.
Class meetings provide students opportunities to reason/reflect.
Class Meetings: Boundaries
Allow students an active voice:
If students believe their ideas are respected and valued, they will more likely be productive participants.
Follow rules of brainstorming.
Use mirroring techniques to help hone students’ ideas.
Establish a regular schedule.
Remember the teacher’s role:
The teacher holds “veto” power; use it sparingly for best results.
Help students to think through the logic of their proposals.
Allow students to learn from their mistakes. Let them try out harmless ideas, even if you think they won’t work.

productively in that space for at least 15 minutes.
An OBJECTIVE…
is a statement describing what it is that is to be learned and what the learner will do todemonstrate that he/she has acquired the learning.

the teacher and the student.
2. Objectives help to save time.
3. Objectives help you to evaluate.
4. Objectives give you the basis for the selectionof materials and teaching methods.
5. Objectives, when precisely written, identify theskills which precede and follow.
6. Specifying precisely what it is that we wantto teach (objective) can help us to stay on target.
DIRECTIONS: In the objectives given below, underline the learning (content) and circle the behavior (actions).
1. Given a list of ten words, the learner will write the root word correctly.
