Resources Used
To keep students on-task
To keep disturbances to a minimum
Teachers Step by Step Instruction:
Teachers will role play different scenarios in which students are off-task and creating disturbance.
Examples: getting up without permission, making comments out loud, doing other things than the
assignment, taking a long time to prepare for the assignment. Teachers will role play what students
should be doing. Examples: staying in assigned area, being quiet while instruction is going on, doing
the assignment, being prepared for the lesson.
Teachers Guided lesson:
Students will role play at least one off-task skit and one creating a disturbance skit. They will also role
play 2 on-task skits and 2 skits without creating a disturbance lesson. Teachers will guide the students
to make sure they understand the lesson.
Closing:
Teachers will take questions and explain why it important for these social skill strategies to become part
of the students everyday life.
The teachers will have the students place a post it note with their name on it on the Stoplight showing if
they understand, they need more instruction, they dont understand. Or the teacher will do a general
discussion and see if there are students that may not understand. Another way would be to use
whiteboards and ask general questions and have the students answer.
When the teachers are observing and guiding the students they will be able to evaluate how they are
doing. The post it note will also help in the evaluation as well. Any type of formative assessment will
give the evaluation results.
Book on Life Skill Strategies and role playing. A google search will also yield results for any resources
needed.
Step 3: Identify the roles each teacher would play during the various parts of the lesson. This is the heart of this activity. How would the
two professionals interact and work together to ensure success in this lesson. Likewise, think of the co-teaching model selected when
determining what each teacher would be doing during the lesson.
