No matter how long you’ve been a teacher, it’s normal to get nervous before an observation. They are a big deal, and you want them to go well!  So, how can you motivate your students to behave? How can you make sure your lesson is engaging and effective? What will you do if you have any issues with technology? I discuss all of this and more to help you kick the nerves and feel more confident when your teacher observation rolls around. In this week’s episode, I share 6 things NOT to do before, during, and after your teacher observation. You’ll hear tips for the planning stages of your lesson, what to do if something goes wrong during your lesson, and how to handle a disappointing observation. I also share personal mistakes I made during my evaluations and how I turned those mistakes into valuable lessons. Don’t miss this week’s Teaching Tip of the Week where I explain an idea for a Morning Meeting topic, perfect for the Monday after a long break!
