Action Items
For curriculum design, Look for ways to improve efficiency with time. Try grouping the warm-ups so that one group is doing one thing while
lesson planning, assessment the other is doing another. With limited space and time, it is better to have groups doing different things so that the
planning time for warm-ups is decreased.
Make sure to scan the classroom/outside and remove any and all obstacles before beginning the test. You can always
For classroom practice ask students to help you remove/move items out of the way so that time is conserved, allowing more time to work
during the class period.
For teaching English Try to find creative ways to keep those students who tend to drift off to stay focused. Maybe grouping these students
