I truly believe that once a teacher sees, hears, and feels the power of one coaching cycle she or he will be hooked! The trick is to get them to try one out. At Twin Lakes we have tried allowing classroom teachers to observe resource teachers in a coaching cycle, this has alleviated some of the anxiety. Thanks for help Steve! :)Shannon B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/07479605768540954020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198029050113881808.post-32424826082376734112007-09-18T18:46:00.000-05:002007-09-18T18:46:00.000-05:002007-09-18T18:46:00.000-05:00Faithie,<BR/>Some teachers find that students paid stroner attention to the teacher on video than live,,<BR/>Some teachers use the strategy to gain time.. 1st period I tape my directions for a lab... next three periods, classes watch the directions.... teacher can interact with other students one on oneStephen G.

I'm wondering if there is a trade off in the participation level of doing this within the class, or would the different delivery method insight them to become more involved?Faithie Lewishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16879839612124761497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198029050113881808.post-29080315442191172562007-09-16T14:30:00.000-05:002007-09-16T14:30:00.000-05:002007-09-16T14:30:00.000-05:00Steve,<BR/><BR/>This is great timing! I have chosen Peer Coaching as my Professional Growth goal this year at Cypress Ridge Elementary School and our small group will begin the book study in October!
