Unacceptable Performance Does not meet requirements contained in job description as expressed in evaluation criteria Results in minimal student progress May contribute to a recommendation for employee not to be considered for continued employment

23. 2b Establishing a Culture for Learning Read through component 2b Make notes Highlight, underline How would you describe the difference between performance levels?

24. Script what you see and hear: what the teacher does and says what students do and say Script evidence. Avoid interpretation – you’re not making judgments now; avoid things like students seem happy or excited about the lesson. Beware of bias – you’re not making value judgments. Be aware of your personal preferences and your “should have, could have, would have” thoughts.
