The Power of Student-Centered Observations by Gravity Goldberg 

DISCUSS - Gravity Goldberg's comparison - "When we focus too much on the teacher and teaching it is like going to a football game and spending the whole time looking at the coach on the sideline." How do you connect with Gravity's comparison? Do teachers still have misconceptions of the coaching role? If so, what can coaches do and continue to do in order to create a stronger culture of coaching?
