Lesson Delivery How is the lesson delivered? How well are the content and language objectives supported? To what extent are students engaged in the lesson? How appropriate is the pace of the lesson to students’ ability levels? Remember, all of these can be traced back to Lesson Preparation! Did you PREPARE for these things to happen?

Student Engagement Students cannot afford to have valuable learning time lost through boredom, inattention, socializing, and other off-task behaviors. Time is wasted when teachers… Are ill prepared Have poor classroom management skills Spend too much time making announcements, taking roll, and getting started Spend too much time passing out and handing in papers

Pacing Pacing refers to the rate at which information is presented during a lesson. Appropriate pace can be affected by: 1) The nature of the content 2) Level of students’ background knowledge 3) Too fast and students can’t keep up 4) Too slow and students lose interest 5) Different needs of different students in your class

Explicit Teaching I DO IT: Modeling Show and tell, involve the students WE DO IT: Prompted or guided practice Guide the students in performing the skill or strategy Provide physical, verbal, or visual prompts YOU DO IT: Unprompted practice Check students’ understanding. Have students perform the skill/strategy without prompts
