Q17 Please provide comments in regards to the student teacher's strengths and areas for improvement.

Classroom routines, procedures, and expectations have been established and are enforced. Continue to maintain these practices as it
sets the tone for the lesson, keeps students focused, and maximizes instructional time; your classroom is very efficient. When students
need redirection, you do so without interrupting instruction.
Nice work using the gradual release of instruction when reviewing the purpose and importance of a CSG. Modeling the process and
letting students hear from students and teachers identify a starting point and norms for the activity. The hardest part of a CSG is getting
students to understand that they are to ask the team leader questions and not give them the answer. You did a very good job of
clarifying that with students while you modeled the process. Following the first round of CSGs, you had students assess their progress
and make necessary adjustments (What worked? What do we need to fix for the rest of the CSG day?).
Teacher reviews the agenda; this gives students an understanding of what to expect for class and to understand what they will be able
to do. Continue this practice as students need to understand the goal(s) of the lesson. While we anticipate that students will read the
learning target, its important to state the overarching goal of the lesson.
It is evident that your cooperating teacher has helped you implement AVID strategies that support student organization and learning
(TOC, focused notes, binders, WICOR, etc.). We have room for you to attend AVID Pathways Training here at SMS in November, if you
wish to participate.
Transitions are seamless from concept to concept and the lesson moves at a brisk pace keeping students focused and on task. While
walking around looking as students worked, students were engaged. I can sense you have become confident in leading your own class.
The most critical and perhaps important part of teaching is to develop relationships with students. When a relationship is healthy and
there is mutual respect, students will respond and give their best efforts in class. When absent, sometimes students are unwilling to
work. It is evident that you are quickly developing a relationship with your students. You consistently offer praise and allow students to
engage in discussion throughout the lesson. Of most importance, students feel free to ask questions and you constantly provided
feedback. How you convey instructions will set the tone for your lesson.
