Your Frame of Mind
1. We dont see with our eyes. 2. We see with our
hearts and our minds. 3. What you saw tells more
about you than it does about the role play. 4.
Perception involves a choice. 5. We cant always
control the events in our lives. 6. We always
control how we see them. 7. Perception leads
to behavior.

When guiding principles Are deeply embedded
in The culture of the School and underpin all
human Interactions, positive Relationships,
better Collaboration, and an overall Sense of
caring support, And teamwork are the
results. Students alienation and Strained
relationships Among adults and with students Are
minimized
- William R. Daggett in Reforming American High
schools- Why, What, and How

While quality is difficult to define
precisely, it almost always includes caring for
each other is always useful, has always involved
hard work on someones part, and when we are
involved with it, as either a provider or a
receiver, it always feels good. Because it feels
so good, I believe all of us carry in our
heads a clear idea of what quality is for
ourselves.

Listening Quotations
Quotes from John Maxwell
  • Leaders touch a heart before they ask for a
    hand. Thats the Law of Connection. Before a
    leader can touch a persons heart, he has to know
    whats in it. He learns that by listening.
  • The overwhelming majority of communication
    problems come from poor listening.
  • Good leaders, the kind that people want to
    follow, do more than conduct business when they
    interact with followers. They take the time to
    get a feel for who each one is as a person.
  • Other Quotes
  • One of the highest compliments you can pay is
    to listen. Unknown
  • Why is it so difficult to realize that others
    are more likely to listen to us if first we
    listen to them? John Wooden
  • Silent and listen are spelled with the same
    letters. Unknown

C.P. Practice
Sometimes I think the kids dont know that we
care about their futures. We really dont get
the support from the parents that we
need. Many teachers think their opinions dont
count.

    conversationAdd questions and paraphrases.

    their own practice and to provide ideas for each
    other.

12
Questions for Assesment Conversations
  • CONSIDER THE LAST CLASS ASSESSMENT THAT YOUR
    STUDENTS COMPLETED
  • What are some general conclusions youve made
    about the outcomes?
  • How will these conclusions effect your next
    step?
  • What requests for insights or ideas do you have
    for your teammates?
  • What notes would you store for the next time you
    teach these skills?

13
Select A New Facilitator...
  • CONSIDERING THE SAME ASSESSMENT
  • What individual student performances surprised
    you? (higher/lower)
  • What questions do these results raise for you?
  • If a teammate observed one or more of these
    students during an upcoming lesson, what would
    you want them to have as a focus?
