⏰ ‘Tis the season to spend A LOT of your time NOT working with your intervention groups and covering classes and duties instead. This may be a systemic issue that’s too much to take on at this time of the year, so what can you do now?1. Document the amount of time that you spend covering classes and duties. This may come in handy for a more rational conversation in the future.2. Use this time as an opportunity to understand what’s happening in other classrooms. It is a great time to pick up on any curriculum or instructional nuances that can contribute to your effectiveness in the intervention room.3. Use this time to get to know other students. You may notice someone is struggling who has not been on the intervention radar yet, or you may be able to humbly support a peer teacher’s instruction with resources and information.4. Get to know your students in a situation that is beyond your intervention classroom. Keep your instruction of a student low-key until they out you as their reading teacher. This respects their privacy and maybe even standing among their peers. You may also notice some academic gifts that you don’t see in the environment of an intervention classroom!5. Build your “teacher cred” with the general student population. This will help build bridges if/when they need help.🧘Take a breath, know that you will have more effective time with students after the break, and enjoy being in their world for just a little bit!What have you learned from covering someone’s class or duty?#huddleteach #readingintervention #readinginterventionist #middleschoolreading #decemberteaching #highschoolreading ...

You can’t consider motivation without considering student quit point!A quit point is the moment in which students have to make the decision to keep trying or to stop. 🛑 When students have a low-quit point, they are more likely to stop trying to solve challenging experiences after one attempt or multiple attempts of the same solution. You can identify your high quit students as those who 🫥are more likely to withdraw from a challenge rather than attempt to solve it, which may look like off-task behaviors, quietness, or anger🫥often have fixed mindset about their reading and writing ability, in this case🫥don’t believe the teacher’s encouraging words since they have little confidence in any positive outcome🫥don’t trust that hard work, taking initiative, and extra practice will make them better🫥lack creative, problem-solving abilities 😉can show growth mindsets, confidence, and more problem-solving, abilities in other areas, usually those that appeal to their interestsDo you want to help raise your students’ quit points?
