Case: Teacher Leaders
As a teacher leader, how would you convince other teachers, specifically in middle grade mathematics, to adapt their teaching strategies to incorporate more small group instruction and collaborative work? You have tried doing professional development through curriculum meetings but still notice that teachers are not implementing these best practices in their classrooms. So far, administration has not provided much support in enforcing change. What else could you try?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
For a long time I wasn't sure how this worked in a math classroom because the only demonstrations that were done were ELA or SS. I think when teachers have content specific ideas it is very helpful. I'm not sure if this is what you were talking about in the professional development but giving teachers concrete examples is extremely helpful. For example, students can complete a ticket out the door one day over a concept they will be practicing the following. The teacher can quickly "grade" it and sort them according to their responses. Students who got them all correct should be grouped together and they will need very little if any assistance on the following day's activity. Then teachers can focus their attention on the remaining students (who are grouped together based on their responses also) to provide scaffolding and remediation as necessary. |
