There are so many things to consider when planning for your observation. Will you use the lesson from the workbook or create something from scratch? What kind of activities will you plan? Will you use manipulatives? Will your students work in groups? 

It’s no wonder that planning for your observation can feel overwhelming!

In this week's episode, I share 6 things to make sure you do when it comes to your teaching observation. You’ll hear tips for planning and delivering your lesson as well as managing student behavior.
