  28. Define Your Program Peer coaching is a highly flexible tool, Define Your Program But without a clear structure…

  29. Define Your Program • You will likely fall on your… • What are some pit falls you might encounter with out a clear definition of purpose?

  30. Define Your Program • How do you avoid these pit falls?

  31. Define Your Program • Your SIP should drive the direction of your coaching • What are the needs of your school/faculty? • What will be your role as a coach? • When will you coach teachers?

  32. Clock Partners • Discuss who, what, and when you might coach. • What might you want to accomplish with your coaching? • Practice explaining your coaching program.

  33. Communication Skills I love it when they ask you a question, you try and answer, they tell you to shut up! "Day and night, night and day, work my fingers to the bone, for what?" "I don't...” "Shut up!!! When I ask you a question, you keep your trap shut! Think I'm talking to hear myself talk? Answer me!!!“ - Bill Cosby

  34. Communication Skills • How do you know someone is really listening to you? • How does this affect you? • How do you know when they are distracted or thinking ahead?

  35. Communication Skills • Active Listening • Paraphrasing/Reflecting • Clarifying

  36. Communication Skills • Active Listening: • Attend fully to the speaker, lock out competing thoughts, lean forward, make eye contact, and pause before responding. • Attend to the conversation. • Strive to pause for 3-6 seconds after someone finishes speaking to allow the speaker to think and to model thoughtfulness.

  37. Communication Skills • Telling your own story: • Paraphrasing/Reflecting: • Restate what was said to indicate acceptance, encouragement, and understanding. • Avoid "I" because it signals that what the speaker is thinking no longer matters and that the paraphraser is going to insert his or her own ideas into the conversation. Avoid , “but”, it immediately signals disagreement

  38. Communication Skills • Be certain you understand all the details before offering input • Clarifying Questions: • Add clarity to the conversation. • Are factual questions. • Help the speaker to be more specific. • Do not require a lot of thought to answer. 

  39. Communication Skills • Can the speaker answer the question with a little help? • Probing Questions: • Push the speaker to think more deeply about a topic. • Are often prefaced by a paraphrase. • Are open ended and do not carry a solution (better if the questioner does not have the answer). • Are questions that help focus the speaker rather than satisfying coach's curiosity.
