| Summary: | How to stand back and get the most out of a well-motivated class. Behaviour guru Sue Cowley coaches a KS3 science teacher on managing her class. Teach First graduate Nic Cooper is a neuro-science graduate still going through her teaching training at The International School and Community College in Birmingham. Her top set science lesson on the kidney function is split into groups. Sue notices that Nic spends much of the time pacing around these and using up her energy. She suggests finding a spot in the room from where she can observe her class and be seen by them should she need to give the deadly stare to keep students on task. Sue also notices that the self-selected groups are either all boys or all girls. Are there merits in varying this for future lessons? With such a well-motivated class Sue encourages Nic to praise them more, relax into her teaching and start to build on the good relationships she's already forging. |
