Sometimes, I get asked why should teachers create guiding questions? They are a high-impact teaching strategy that provides a clear target for student learning. This blog post goes over how to create effective guiding questions. ow.ly/c5MJ50Q2PgQ

Watch a teacher make roughly ~1,000 instructional decisions in about 45 seconds. Only a few of them are about the lesson but the lesson depends on ALL of them. This is one of the hardest things to explain about teaching to people who have never taught.

Principals, are you an active member of your guiding coalition; or have you delegated leading the PLC processes to another staff member - e.g., assistant principal, instructional coach, etc.? Just checkin’. #atPLC @SolutionTree #guidingcoalitions

I designed a new visual pattern today and I'd love to see your thinking about it. What do you notice and wonder? How many stars in the next step? How many stars will be in the 43rd step? How do you know? #visualpatterns
