OFSTED Focus: Teaching and Learning
At the start of the lesson
thinks about a hook, something to grab their attention. – Not about
going through learning objectives, outcomes, assessment criteria
etc……..uninspiring……pupils switch off.
They are not interested in previous observations……much....just overall picture. However keep a record.
Think about progress and time, best use of time. You should be able to show progress in 30 mins.
Every second counts – Distance and depth – not just doing?
Do not follow 3 part lesson because a lesson should branch out like a tree.
Teachers must unlearn and relearn………evolve.
Learning should flow and make sense, pupils
should flourish. It’s not about activities, it’s about the
experience. Is a silent lessons a good way to learn?....Only sometimes.
Children should be doing the questioning…….not the teacher.
Never spend more than 10 mins. gathering
info……they will have to process it……..absorb……..make it meaningful to
them……….explain………..develop thinking.
