Description

Over 75% of teachers say that student behaviors and disruptions are limiting minutes of their daily instruction (Pew Research Center). Step onto the field and gear up, as Wade coaches you through the ultimate game plan and playbook for classroom management success. This high-energy session will serve as your playbook for implementing daily lesson non-negotiables for winning classroom management and student engagement—every lesson, every time.

In the game of instruction, timing and positioning are everything. Get ready to master the art of pacing, proximity, and motion and movement to keep your students engaged and in the zone. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a rookie in the teaching game, this session will guide you to set clear expectations, maintain momentum, and turn every moment into a winning opportunity. It’s time to get off on the sidelines & become the MVP of your classroom!

This session is part of GYTO’s Playbook Series with Hope King, Wade King, & Chris Pombonyo for systematic best instructional practices for leveling up daily instruction and increasing student academic results.

The strategies, planning, alignment, and techniques shared throughout the Playbook Series have been modeled and implemented by the GYTO Team in hundreds of classrooms throughout the country with incredible academic results including at our GYTOxIndiana Collaboration Sites in partnership with the Indiana Department of Education. Strategies shared throughout the series can be easily implemented with any lesson, any curriculum, and any standard.
