5. Five Tips for Your Modeling Career

Does modeling in classrooms stress you out? It used to stress me out, big time. It's scary - you don't know the kids, you are walking in to model just one piece of the learning, and the classroom isn't set up to your own teaching style. We all have horror stories. Listen in to this episode to hear all about the horror that was my first modeling session...and learn from my mistakes! Modeling can be scary, but it's also is one of the best tools you can have as an instructional coach, especially if you have teachers who learn best by watching (which, let's be honest, is most people - we need to see things in action!). While modeling can be very effective, it has to be done right! Here's how. My top five tips for modeling are the following: establish a plan, exercise chunking, bring your own materials, set behavior expectations, and think-aloud while teaching. In the episode, I give you a plan for attacking each one of these tips so you can model with confidence (and your cooperating teacher will learn something, too)!
