Setting High Expectations
Chapter 1
![Page 3: Teach like a champion chapt.s 1 and 2](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071818/55ae67dd1a28ab136b8b4783/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
No Opt Out
Everybody responds, even if it’s only to repeat the correct answer…with reluctant responders:
You can provide the answer – the student repeats the answer
Another student (or the whole class) can provide the answer – the student repeats the answer
You can provide a clue – student uses it to find the answer
Another student can provide a clue – the student uses it tofind the answer
If the question asked is well related to the lesson’s objective,go slowly and rigorously.
If the question is peripheral take the correct answer quickly.

Right is Right
Teachers tend to ‘round up’ when a student’s answer is closeor partially correct.
Never confuse effort with mastery
“I like what you’ve done. Can you get us the rest of the way?”
“We’re almost there. Can you find the last piece?”
“I like most of that…”
Even if the answer is “correct” be sure that it answers the question asked.
“What is area?” “Length times width” is the correct formulabut not the answer.
Accept only correct answers that do not jump ahead.
Use and accept correct technical languageAccept “35 hundredths” not “Point 35”

Stretch It
A useful technique for differentiating whole group instruction
Ask for expansion or the correct answer in a different scenario
Ask how or why
Ask for another way to answer
Ask for a better word
Ask for evidence
Ask student to integrate a related skill(e.g. ask for the meaning, then ask for the word in past tense)
Ask student to apply skill in new setting

Format Matters
Correct grammar, pronunciation, and usage
Identify the error “We was…? Or
Begin the correction “We were…”
Stress complete sentence format
Remind…post, or pre-correct
Expect audible answers
One word – voice – for pre- or post-correction
Stress unit format in math
5 inches…14 pounds

Without Apology
Don’t apologize about content
“I know this is boring, but…”
Don’t blame
“This may not seem useful but we have to..”
“Kids respond to challenges;they require pandering only if people pander to them.”

Planning that Ensures Academic
Achievement
Chapter 2
![Page 9: Teach like a champion chapt.s 1 and 2](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071818/55ae67dd1a28ab136b8b4783/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Begin with the End
Start your planning with“What will my students understand (not ‘do’) today?
Begin with the end means:
Progressing from unit planning to lesson planning
Using a well-framed objective to define the goal of each lesson
Determining how you’ll assess you effectiveness in reaching your goal
Deciding on your activity
![Page 10: Teach like a champion chapt.s 1 and 2](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071818/55ae67dd1a28ab136b8b4783/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Four “M”sThe 4 criteria for effective objectives:
ManageableThe size and scope that can be taught in one lesson
Build a series of day-by-day objectives, settingachievable goals building toward mastery
MeasurableSet up explicit, measurable goals
Lesson should include a way to assess afterward and prior to moving onIf the goal is to have them know or understand something, how will you know
Made FirstThe objective comes first
Don’t ‘retrofit’ an objective to an activity
Most ImportantThe objective should focus on a skill students need.(e.g. Do they need to know how to make a poster?)

Post It
Post the objective so that students know what they are trying to do.
A visitor (or supervisor) may feel, for example, that you are not using the right questions pertaining to a
certain topic – until they see the objective
![Page 12: Teach like a champion chapt.s 1 and 2](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071818/55ae67dd1a28ab136b8b4783/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Shortest Path
The criteria is mastery
– not interaction, creativity, design –
take the shortest path to mastery
When in doubt use I/We/You

Double Plan
Plan what you do and what they do every step of the lesson (e.g. taking notes? listening for differences?)
Use a “Me” / “Them” T-chartHelps you to see the lesson from students’ viewpoint

Draw the Map
Think intentionally about room layout(desks, aisles, spaces)
Don’t over-clutter wallsbut do post useful tools once a skill has been taught
