Teach Mentor: Station 2-GBF Coaches Guide by Christopher Lopez https://padlet.com/christopherlopez1/h8agiqngw7987lk2 Teach Mentor: Station 1- GBF Scope & Sequence (Waterfall)As we wrap up the year, this interactive session will provide an opportunity for teacher mentors to reflect on their coaching experiences, share feedback, and strengthen their proficiency with key coaching resources. Throughout the year, we have used Paul Bambrick-Santoyo’s Get Better Faster scope and sequence, the Coaches Guide, LISD Effective Feedback document and the Texas Teach Like a Champion website (texastlaconline.com) to support teacher growth. This session will allow you to collaborate with fellow mentors, discuss what worked well, identify areas for improvement, and deepen your understanding of these resources to enhance your coaching practice moving forward. en-us 2025-03-25 22:57:52 UTC 2025-03-26 16:21:43 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f4ac.png alysoncrawford https://padlet.com/christopherlopez1/h8agiqngw7987lk2/wish/3383516648 probing questions

Since we are the coach in the situation, but have not had the experience of coaching, these were a great literal guide to having these conversations with peers.

For example simple things like focusing on routines in the classroom was a part of the rubric, however growing teachers could understand the expectations and come up with a plan to meet them.

The expectation was set to observe and give feedback, but not so much on the other areas.

Glow: Y'all gave us great resources that were a very helpful guide to being an effective coach considering we do not have additional creditentials to be a coach.

I work to create a space where my mentee feels supported rather than judged or set up. When trust is established, I’ve seen real growth in their confidence and a greater willingness to reflect and develop their craft.
