Slide 2 – Today’s Schedule Let’s review today’s schedule. Slide 3 – Session 3 Content Slide 4 – Session 3 Morning Objectives Let’s look at the CoP Session 3 Objectives we will cover this morning. Slide 5 Activity 1: Review Giving Clear Instructions Last session we discussed giving clear instructions to form groups and to give activity instructions. Our first activity today is to review what we learned. [On the board, if not using the powerpoint] Do you understand? Do you know what to do? Ask why these questions are NOT ICQs? Then, hand out the cards with instruction situations and possible ICQs. In pairs, participants will match the situations with the possible ICQs. Transition: Now that we have reviewed ICQs, you are going to observe a Master Class using the CoP Observation Rubric. You will observe for everything you have learned so far.	Resource: Situations & ICQs Cut out cards in advance	15 min
Master Class Observation	Resources	Time
Slides 6-7 Activity 2 – Master Class Observation [RPMs, remember to pause and let Mentees discuss when you see a .] Video Observation Procedures: RPM Instructions: Pause to review the pre-observation questions on the video/Small Group discussion questions Pause at Rubric slide to review rubric sections– CoP All, TESOL’s 6Ps, Building Routines, and Giving Clear Instructions. These are the main focus of this morning’s observation. Watch video until 6:52 – Mentees complete Rubric Sections for CoP All, TESOL’s 6Ps, Building Routines, and Giving Clear Instructions Pause for Turn & Talk – “What columns did you check? Why?” Watch video from 6:53 until 27:56 – Mentees complete Rubric CoP All, TESOL’s 6Ps, Building Routines, and Giving Clear Instructions Pause for Turn & Talk – “What columns did you check? Why?” Review Observation Rubric the other sections of the Observation Rubric – Checking Comprehension, etc. Mentees will observe ALL sections of the Rubric for the rest of the video -- sections CoP All to Extending Textbook. Watch the rest of the video (46.53) Mentees look at their rubrics, then Have a Whole Class Discussion about the columns Mentees checked for each section of the Rubric and why. What was one thing you thought was “well done” (no changes necessary)? Why? What was one thing that “needs a little work”? Why? What was one thing that “needs a lot of work”? Why? Slide 8 – Activity 3 In pairs discuss the following questions about what you viewed: Are all of the students speaking in full sentences during class? How did the teacher regularly check to see if students were learning and able to meet objectives? If no, what could he/she have done? Was there a starter routine? Did it work? How do you know? Were the instructions clear? What ICQs did the teacher ask? If not clear, what suggestions do you have? REMINDER: You will use the Observation Rubric to observe a master class, self-observation, and a peer’s teaching. The Rubric will help you find evidence that the teaching includes TETE module content. TRANSITION: In yesterday’s session, we learned how to do a self-observation. There are 5 steps. Does anyone remember them?
