Three years into coaching and the most valuable thing you can do is say "Hi" and form relationships. #educoach

In reply to @MissJLMiller9

woodsdana Aug 9 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A3 They would know I was a coach because I model, give students chances to model, and then let them learn and notice what happens #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A3 Some of my day-to-day work is providing learning opportunities. I have moved from the "talking head" PD to a coach/facilitator. #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:28 PM EDT

Q5: As a coach or a principal wearing a coaching hat, how do you help teachers know that classroom visits are not evaluative? #educoach

mandymtaylor Aug 9 @ 9:32 PM EDT

Can't stay long, but wanted to drop in! Mandy, elem #educoach in @hayscisd (between Austin and San Marcos) #txed

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:34 PM EDT

A5 Sharing coaching beliefs often with Ts is important, not just at the beginning of the year. #educoach

PrincipalJ - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:35 PM EDT

Sorry I'm missing #educoach tonight...trying to join in 1 handed!

woodsdana Aug 9 @ 9:35 PM EDT

A5 As support guy I can wear that hat and make observations as tech integration trainer incognito #educoach

In reply to @KathyPerret

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:37 PM EDT

In reply to @MissJLMiller9, @MrsMoodyIC

LitROCK_taylor Aug 9 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A5 Have a strong relationship established so time in their room isn't perceived as intrusive or an assessment #educoach

PrincipalJ - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A5: By not evaluating! Recognize the good, ask questions , share their strengtgs with others #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:38 PM EDT

Very true - it all boils down to relationships and trust, doesn't it! #educoach

In reply to @LitROCK_taylor

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:38 PM EDT

Q6: Think about when you may have been a teacher, how could(or did) an administrator empower & inspire you to grow professionally? #educoach

LitROCK_taylor Aug 9 @ 9:38 PM EDT

I'm jumping in late tonight...school starts tomorrow so I'll be in and out! #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:39 PM EDT

No worries. Being prepared for school is the most important! #educoach

In reply to @LitROCK_taylor

PrincipalJ - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:39 PM EDT

aooh Happy 1st day of school! #educoach

In reply to @LitROCK_taylor

LitROCK_taylor Aug 9 @ 9:40 PM EDT

A6 constructive feedback! Hearing, "you're doing great" does nothing for teacher growth. Highlight strengths, create goals #educoach

woodsdana Aug 9 @ 9:40 PM EDT

A6 Trust, and letting me make mistakes, open door for reflection #educoach

MrsMoodyIC Aug 9 @ 9:41 PM EDT

A6: a coach empowers you when they recognize and acknowledge your strengths while helping you reach new professional goals. #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:42 PM EDT

Q7: What obstacles get in the way of coaching actions - either as an instructional coach or administrator? #educoach

PrincipalJ - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A7: Judging or telling how you would do it #educoach

MCUSDSupe Aug 9 @ 9:44 PM EDT

Coaching depends on trust and the true belief that the coach is invested ONLY in the individual - not organization outcomes. #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:42 PM EDT

Q7: What obstacles get in the way of coaching actions - either as an instructional coach or administrator? #educoach

LitROCK_taylor Aug 9 @ 9:46 PM EDT

A7 the volume of teachers we work with. @LitROCK_forth and I work with 19 buildings in the area of ELA #educoach

PrincipalJ - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:47 PM EDT

That's true....it's hard to balance coaching support for a high #. Do you have suggestions? #educoach

In reply to @LitROCK_taylor, @LitROCK_forth

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:47 PM EDT

Q8: Some obstacles were mentioned. What are possible solutions to overcoming the obstacles? #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:47 PM EDT

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:53 PM EDT

A9 Noticing the awesome things happening in the building and connecting Ts with each other. #educoach

LitROCK_taylor Aug 9 @ 9:54 PM EDT

A9 I love facilitating classroom visits across the district. Ts can learn so much from each other! #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:54 PM EDT

What about giving the Ts a few blog posts to read, discuss, and build their own process. #educoach

In reply to @PrincipalJ

KathyPerret - Moderator Aug 9 @ 9:55 PM EDT

Great way to help Ts see others teach! Having you to facilitate/debrief is powerful. #educoach
