Classroom Data Review

Practice Cycle 4

Present: Teach Fluently and Clearly

Teach Fluently and Clearly is a practice module that goes in depth for participants to learn what happens when the technique is delivered with fidelity. They learn what happens when teaching fluently and clearly is not delivered with fidelity. They also learn how to overcome the barriers to deliver teaching fluently and clearly with fidelity.

Learning Intents
  • Demonstrate techniques that engage students and deliver lesson components to fidelity (TS1.2) (3.1.02).
  • Understand basic direct instruction techniques and why they are used. Understand basic explicit instruction teaching techniques and why they are used. Demonstrate mastery of basic direct and explicit instruction techniques through weekly program practice sessions and then in classroom delivery (TS1.3) (3.1.03).
  • Understand components of effective teaching resources (such as the Teacher Guide) that align with core programs. Demonstrate direct and explicit instruction concepts in developing independent work that aligns to the program being taught. Communicate correct use of program components, such as Teacher Presentation Book, Teacher Guide, Student Workbooks, student books, etc. (TS1.4) (3.1.04).
  • Implement lesson sequences with fidelity, maintaining student engagement and promoting learning (TS1.9) (3.1.09).
  • Review key teaching techniques with colleagues in weekly practice sessions (TS1.10) (3.1.10).
  • Understand basic effective teaching techniques and practices in academics and behaviour. Demonstrate ability to teach lessons using direct and explicit instruction teaching techniques (TS2.1) (3.2.01).
  • Understand how to group students and maximise instructional time to manage classroom activities. Apply classroom practices across all activities by setting clear behavioural expectations and facilitating routines, orderly transitions and bell to bell teaching. Demonstrate effective use of instructional time by managing classroom (TS4.2) (3.4.02).
  • Plan how to group students and maximise instructional time to manage classroom activities. Implement plan to facilitate routines, orderly transitions and bell to bell teaching (TS4.7) (3.4.07).
Assessment

Assessment has two stages:

  • Test: Knowledge and skills taught in the lessons
  • Observation: Delivery with students of the knowledge and skills learned in the lessons.
Duration
  • 4 Lessons.
Certification
  • None.

Produce Accurate and Timely Data

Produce Accurate and Timely Data is a practice module that goes in-depth for participants to learn what happens when the technique is delivered with fidelity. They learn what happens when producing accurate and timely data is not delivered with fidelity. They also learn how to overcome the barriers to produce accurate and timely data with fidelity.

Learning Intents
  • Demonstrate program knowledge to set learning goals for direct instruction groups and use scaffolding through error correction and remedies and re-testing to ensure learning goals are met (TS1.1) (3.1.01).
  • Demonstrate techniques that engage students and deliver lesson components to fidelity (TS1.2) (3.1.02).
  • Understand basic direct instruction techniques and why they are used. Understand basic explicit instruction teaching techniques and why they are used. Demonstrate mastery of basic direct and explicit instruction techniques through weekly program practice sessions and then in classroom delivery (TS1.3) (3.1.03).
  • Understand components of effective teaching resources (such as the Teacher Guide) that align with core programs. Communicate correct use of program components, such as Teacher Presentation Book, Teacher Guide, Student Workbooks, student books, etc. (TS1.4) (3.1.04).
  • Implement lesson sequences with fidelity, maintaining student engagement and promoting learning (TS1.9) (3.1.09).
  • Review key teaching techniques with colleagues in weekly practice sessions (TS1.10) (3.1.10).
  • Understand basic effective teaching techniques and practices in academics and behaviour. Demonstrate ability to teach lessons using direct and explicit instruction teaching techniques (TS2.1) (3.2.01).
  • Plan lesson presentation using direct and explicit instruction teaching techniques. Implement all parts of direct and explicit instruction lessons (TS2.7) (3.2.07).
  • Plan group instruction based on mastery data and program guidelines. Implement direct and explicit instruction lessons with fidelity (TS2.8) (3.2.08).
  • Understand how to use mastery test data to assess student learning. Demonstrate remedies and retesting as indicated in direct instruction following mastery tests and/or student checkouts and use correction procedure when students make errors (TS6.1) (3.6.01).
Duration
  • 4 Lessons.
