Unfortunately, Amy is unwell again this week, so Adam is joined by Grainne! They discuss questions from the listeners, including: Should Do Nows be done on mini-whiteboards? Is it hard to deliver…
Adam BoxerHostGrainne HallahanGuestI've got to do some stuff for BBC tomorrow, but my little brother, who is a big fan of this podcast, sent me a video of yours.
It's one with a teacher telling the class how to, like before you start an activity, she explains to them and checking that they've listened before she sets them off.
it was good it's interesting it's um it's it's funny like obviously i've not taught for a while but i don't think anything pulls you back to remembering what it's like in the classroom when you're trying to explain to a group of kids how to do something and you've got the constant like you think you think they've got it and they're like hang on did you really get it so yeah i enjoyed it
Well, if that's on our sub stack, so if anyone wants to see the video of Chloe, basically my theory is that, not theory, sorry, I have observed this on too many occasions to count, that a lot of behaviour problems and learning issues stem from the fact that teachers don't know how to give instructions.
No, I think there's lots and lots of mistakes that you can make and make them unintentionally.
