learners
too give at least one constructive comment for each observation.

I love that you are focused on vocabulary

almost everyone got called on - that is good - no one is left behind

you have a strong sense of timing

way to follow through with your expected behaviors

content seems to come easy to you, that is nice!

SUGGESTIONS
Please give at least one constructive suggestion for each observation.

dont forget your cooperative learning stuctures: rally robin, round robin,

consider forcing them to look in their book - on particular pages: place your
thumb where it says, Architecture in Rome, now reread this paragraph

trying new strategies will throw them off - that is a good thing! Variety adds
excitement

try not to let the kids talk over you - you have important things to say and
they respeect you so you may need to remind them of this
