Facilitating Coaching Conversations - Observations How is the task aligned to CCSS? How is the lesson a part of a unit? What did the teacher want students to be able to do at the end of the lesson? Did the teacher create, develop, or enrich curious students by focusing on the process and not the answer? Does the task require students to think and use information from the text? How do students know when they’re successful and can all learners succeed?
