It goes without saying that all of us have different life experiences, political beliefs, and professional practices. These serve as our "lenses" through which we inevitably design and facilitate lessons. Effective teachers are aware of these differences and the potential impact they have on students as both learners and people. How a student receives or interacts with a lesson is affected by these lenses (theirs and yours). We can't drive content in a vacuum. When we are more aware of these lenses, students are more likely to benefit from our process.

Teachers often use "Review Days" as a regular part of their process, especially before summative assessments. However, if not approached correctly, these days can actually hurt students and even prevent learning. Playing games of random unit trivia and/or attempting to reteach every previous lesson are failing strategies for long-term learning. Instead, effective teachers utilize "Review Days" as additional lessons to further and reinforce concepts, skills, and knowledge.…

The gap between who we are and how we actually come across to our students needs to be as narrow as possible. In addition to being relationship-focused, effective teachers must possess high levels of self-awareness. They need to reflect, seek feedback, and accept coaching on a regular basis. Effective teachers come across as genuine because they ARE genuine. They are liked AND respected. Falling to achieve these things can make you come across like a Dumbo to your students, and in turn, impact the learning.…
 
Effective teachers know they have to offer different pieces of the "pie" to truly connect with the diversity of students in the classroom. In addition to offering countless ways to learn and show skills and progress, allowing them to "nibble" on different pieces improves the student experience. So, what makes up your pie? How big are the pieces? Is it time to offer more or remake others?…
 
This episode discusses crucial strategies that will help your students find success in the classroom and beyond. Effective teachers know that effort is really about motivation. When we don't empathize or emphasize what really drives student motivation, we are building a recipe for underachievement and underperformance.…
 
Group work is often an obsession for teachers and other stakeholders. The truth is, like any other instructional strategy, if it is not used with appropriate learning objectives in mind, the lesson will be more likely to miss the mark. Effective educators know that we have to be intentional. When used appropriately, group work can lead to powerful outcomes.…
 
Spend time thinking about the ideal classroom, knowing that every classroom will look different. What does the physical space look like? How are lessons taught in that classroom? What does assessment and classroom management look like? Once you begin to understand what "ideal" looks like to you, start working towards it every day. In all likelihood, you will never achieve "ideal" or "perfection," but you will certainly have philosophical and tangible goals to work towards. Effective teachers know that trying is far more powerful than not trying.…
 
Will it get easier? Will you figure it out? Whether you're beginning your career, changing schools or roles, or approaching decades of experience, we are all looking to hit our stride. How do we know we're there, and how do we avoid stagnation? How should we approach the inevitable change in our field? We will unpack these questions and more in this week's episode.…
 
This week's episode is all about "game changers" that have helped me find success in the classroom and in education. From instructional and assessment strategies to time-management, classroom strategies, and more, these are things that can help you become more effective. My hope is that you can better identify what has worked well for you, use any of the "game changers" that have impacted my classroom, and make an even bigger difference for those you serve.…
 
It is absolutely impossible for a teacher to adequately meet all of the mental health and socioemotional health needs of our students - nor should we try. In a world and society that's "all about me" and relative ethics, we have to focus on developing a classroom that is all about driving academic content and building relationships. We can't allow the fires of the world to flood our classrooms. While they certainly impact our classrooms because learning environments should reflect real life, effective teachers know that we have to focus on why we were hired in the first place.…
 
Enrichment is far more effective than edutainment. As students reach high school, they search for more "meaning" in lessons than "fun" alone. Enrichment is the key to both engaging students and establishing that meaning. For effective teachers, striving to make every class "fun" is a secondary concern to building lesson plans that allow students to explore and connect with the lesson themselves. Plus, making every class fun is a daunting task, especially for the teenaged brain.…
 
Effective and professional teachers document early and often. They document the good and the bad. They document how effective lessons are in meeting their goals. They document patterns in student performance and behavior. They then use this data to improve student outcomes. It's not about paranoia or simply documenting for the major disruptions/issues in class (though that's important too). It's about effectively meeting the needs of those we serve.…
