Unable to Make Informed Teaching Decisions
Keith teaches Spelling Mastery D. Each lesson takes about twenty minutes to complete including checking independent work. Keith’s school has spelling timetabled for thirty minutes a day.
Monday: Keith teaches Lessons 43 and 44.
Tuesday: Keith teaches Lessons 45 and 46.
Wednesday: Keith teaches Lessons 47 and 48.
Thursday: Keith teaches Lesson 49 and students sit for mastery test 4.
Friday: Keith conducts work checks for all the lessons completed this week. He checks the mastery tests the following week.
Keith is teaching through the lessons too fast. He is unable to make informed teaching decisions as to whether his students are at mastery or not. He is not correcting independent work to check for mastery nor the mastery tests to know if he needs to go back and reteach to bring students to mastery.
