OTHER OBSERVATIONS
I could see in your video that your students were so happy to be talking to you and
seeing you! It was sweet to see how you engaged with them and I so wish I could hear
what you were saying so I could give you better feedback.
Your use of the organizer was skillful and I thought the support you provided in both
note-taking styles (the Thinking Tree and the Outline) was “chunked” well -- meaning
that you provided short text excerpts with a nice amount of scaffolded note-taking. This
modelling likely served your students very well in their application of the lesson.
I think one of the most powerful things here was your feedback form where you
solicited feedback from your students! How incredible for your students to be able to
keep that two-way communication with you. Well done!
Thank you for sharing this with us. Let’s try to solve the audio issue for the next lesson
so we can hear you and your students.
