Listen " Classroom Teams: Handling Sticky Situations with CLASS® "
Episode Synopsis
To be an effective educator and classroom presence, the adults have to work together as much as or more than the students do. Classrooms work best when co-teachers understand each other and work together. How can educators ensure that they’re in sync with each other, and how can CLASS® help?
In today’s episode, you’ll hear a fun conversation between Kate Cline and return guest Deirdre Harris. Learn about parallel processes for adult behavior, making a lesson plan with other team members, and how team agreements can be made to improve the way the classroom runs and ensure a shared vision.
