Now We're Talking! 21 Days to High-Performance Instructional Leadership
$40.95
Daily observation of classroom teaching can significantly impact the quality of teaching and learning. Organized into 21 chapters designed to be read over a period of 21 school days, Now We're Talking! presents a results-driven approach that far surpasses traditional walkthrough models of feedback for teachers. School leaders will complete two cycles of teacher evaluations while reading the book and establish the necessary foundation for subsequent visits.
This plan will help you incorporate daily classroom walkthroughs to improve teaching and learning:
- Identifying the most promising areas of focus
- Drafting and piloting an initial framework
- Getting input and feedback from teachers
- Articulating a vision for exemplary practice
- Building momentum and overcoming resistance to change
