Lesson observation field notes: assertiveness in the classroom.

This episode is this week's 'Teacher Talk': a fifteen minute talk that explores an important aspect of classroom practice, with practical strategies for implementing it in your classroom.

I am very fortunate to be spending the next three weeks observing the wonderful Edinburgh Napier English PGDE students teaching. The talks over the next three weeks will be some key learnings from these observations. 

This talk focusses on the importance of assertiveness in the classroom. It looks at why it is important, how to demonstrate assertiveness, and how to build more assertiveness in your management of behaviour and learning.

I hope you find it helpful and supportive in your classroom. Any feedback on how to improve these talks, or areas you would like me to explore, is always much appreciated.

As always, please do pass this on to anyone else who you think might find it helpful and supportive. Please contact me on Twitter @teachgratitude1
