Instructional Coaching with Ms. B

Instructional Coaching with Ms. B

Buzzing with Ms. B, Instructional Coach

Welcome to Instructional Coaching with Ms. B, where we believe that every teacher deserves a coach, and every coach does too! I’m Chrissy Beltran, an elementary teacher who became a coach and I had to create my own coaching program that worked. Now I teach coaches how to design their coaching programs, build a school-wide action plan, and use differentiated strategies to support teachers. Plus, I’ve got a special spot in my heart for literacy coaches! This podcast will cover instructional coaching strategies including modeling, co-teaching, and observations, coaching cycles, and more! We'll also talk about how to coach resistant teachers, how to establish yourself as a coach and define your role, set goals, manage your time, facilitate PLCs, and more! We chat with instructional coaches, principals, school leaders, and researchers!

Why is it so hard to change our mindset and behaviors? In this episode, I talk to AJ Crabill about changing adult mindsets in order to improve student outcomes. We discuss why student outcomes don’t change until we shift adult mindsets, the reasons it’s difficult to change our mindset, and how being vulnerable in the school boardroom echoes in the classroom. He explains the 3 key drivers of adult behavior change and why mindset is often overlooked in favor of knowledge or skills. AJ shares his insights on transitioning from a typical discipline approach to a student-led approach and how to create a safe environment for teachers to work on their own mindset without fear of judgment or criticism.

Instructional Coaching with Ms. B - 7. Planning Collaboratively: Before, During, and After PLC
play

02/29/20 • 20 min

The first time I tried planning collaboratively with a grade level, I wanted to die. It was so confusing; we were all talking about the same things but we weren't communicating effectively at all, and everyone left without a sense of what to do or why to do it.

Flash forward five years and we'd created a system for planning together! In this episode, I share what to do before, during, and after a collaborative planning PLC to ensure that your teachers are prepared to implement plans that impact teaching and learning in their classrooms.

Get the free download for building content knowledge at the beginning of PLC and start creating a common language with your teachers!
