sufficient detail

where appropriate and needed

Managing
Learning

Ayesha used appropriate

classroom management strategies
to secure a safe and effective
learning environment

classroom routines and transitions

Aysha pace your lessons so

you have more time for the

is important for the girls
learning and understanding.

Implement

Learning

She implemented strategies which

motivated and maintained an
effective classroom presence
She included a range of activities
in the lesson but needs to include
modelling.
Ayshas lessons need to be
carefully paced to ensure students
are appropriately engaged and
challenged
Appropriately uses a variety of
questions that fit appropriately
within the lesson context
Implements differentiated
instruction to lessons taught

All students need to be

monitored. This is why you
must move to every table and
talk to the girls. This is part of
your formative assessing.

1. Present material in
detail so it is
meaningful and
accessible to support
student engagement
and learning
2. Sequences the learning

Reflection
on Practice

Aysha showed reflection on

feedback in the post lesson
discussion

Next steps
Make connection with the class. You
must engage and talk with them not
just at them.
Your expectations are not clear and
behaviors need monitoring.
Dont teach to the board.
Move around the room and make
contact with each group.
Students are talking and chatting,
calling out while your teaching. Is this
OK?

Action Points
There are key areas which need to show
marked improvement Ayesha. Your
lesson planning and teaching style
needs to include these important
points. You should work on developing
these aspects Aysha for the next
observation.
They are;
1. Communicating and connecting
with the children. You are
following the lesson phases but
not connecting your teaching to
the students enough. We
discussed this.
2. When you give instructions you
talk to the board and speak to
the board. You need to clearly
model what you want, face the
students and not rush through
this. Grade two need clear
directions and scaffolding
through teacher modelling
3. Your board work/writing is messy
and unclear. It is also rushed.
This should be modelled and
show your best work for the
class.
4. Your behavior management
needs improvement. The girls
were allowed to call out. Shout,
talk when you were speaking and
call out during the lesson. This is

because you didnt set your
expectations at the beginning of
the lesson and throughout the
phases.
5. There was too much wait-time
between phased because the
transitions were either not
planned or not explained. You
clearly need to plan for
transitions between phases and
keep control of the class.
6. Use your voice as a tool. Change
your expression and include your
facial expressions and gestures.
Your voice should show
enthusiasm and be expressive.
This will all help to make you a better
and more effective teacher. Use these
ideas in all your lessons and practice.
