This teacher observation form is designed to assess a teacher's performance during guided reading and work stations. The form includes questions related to the clarity of the lesson's focus, the topic and text on the students' instructional level, the purpose of reading, and the teacher's support and note-taking during independent reading. The form also evaluates the pacing of the lesson, the connection made to independent reading strategies, and the teacher's ability to wrap up the lesson and refocus students. Additionally, the form assesses the safety and clarity of expectations for workstations, the placement and length of workstations, and the teacher's ability to adjust the lesson if necessary. Finally, the form evaluates the teacher's use of an attention signal and includes a space for a photo.
