In this episode of Pedagogy to Practice, Beth and Sunny dive deep into one of the most crucial aspects of teaching: Checking for Understanding. Together, they unpack why this strategy is essential across every subject area and year level. Beth shares a toolkit of invaluable, research-backed techniques that every teacher can implement straight away. She also explores the power of fostering a "culture of error", a classroom environment where students feel safe to take risks, make mistakes, and grow through feedback. Meanwhile, Sunny brings practical insights from the ground, sharing how teachers at her school are checking for understanding in real time. From what’s worked well to what’s flopped, she offers honest reflections and creative solutions that listeners can take into their own classrooms. Whether you're a new teacher or a seasoned pro, this episode is packed with actionable ideas to ensure your students aren’t just present, they’re learning. Hosted on Acast.
