The Wisdom of Practice
Let’s Share…..
Think: If you were to walk into a classroom, what might you see or hear there (from the students as well as the teacher) that would cause you to think that you were in the presence of an expert?
What would make you think: “Oh, this is good; if I had a child this age, this is the class I would hope for.”

The Framework for Teaching Charlotte Danielson
Domain 1: Planning and Preparation
• “Domain 1 describes how a teacher organizes the content that the students are to learn – how the teacher designs instruction.”
• “The domain covers all aspects of instructional planning, beginning with a deep understanding of content and pedagogy and an understanding and appreciation of the students and what they bring to the educational encounter.”
Domain 1: Planning and Preparation
• “It is difficult to overstate the importance of planning.”
• “Teachers who excel in Domain 1 design instruction that reflects an understanding of the disciplines they teach-the important concepts and principles within that content, and how the different elements relate to one another and to those in other disciplines.”
• “They also understand their students – their backgrounds, interests, and skills.”
Unsatisfactory
• “Teacher performing at the Unsatisfactory level does not yet appear to understand the concepts underlying the component.”
• Unsatisfactory will involve supervisory intervention with the teacher.
Metaphor – the nonswimmerWho is drowning
Basic
• “Teacher performing at the Basic level appears to understand the concepts underlying the component and attempts to implement its elements.” “Implementation is sporadic, intermittent, or otherwise not entirely successful.”
• Mentors/Coaches will be assigned• Characteristic of student teachers, new teachers
– improvement likely to occur with experience
Metaphor – the dog paddle – but nothing else – if a wave comes up,
he/she could be swamped
Proficient/ DOE - Effective
• “Teacher performing at the Proficient level clearly understands the component and implements it well.”
• “Teachers at the Proficient level are experienced, professional educators. They thoroughly know their content, they know their students, they know the curriculum and have a broad repertoire of strategies and activities to use with students.”
Metaphor – the swimmer who can swim different strokes, and the knowledge of when to use each.
Distinguished/ DOE – Highly Effective
• “Teachers performing at the Distinguished level are master teachers and make a contribution to the field, both in and outside their school.”
• “Classrooms functioning at the Distinguished level seem to running themselves; it almost appear that the teacher is not doing anything.”
Metaphor – the swim teacher
Domain 1: Planning and Preparation
• 1a Demonstrating Knowledge of Content and Pedagogy
• 1b Demonstrating Knowledge of Students• 1c Setting Instructional Outcomes• 1d Demonstrating Knowledge of Resources• 1e Designing Coherent Instruction• 1f Designing Student Assessments
The Role of the Lesson Plan
• Allows teachers to target specific objectives, lesson by lesson as well as over the course of a unit or a semester.
• Allows teachers to plan for and provide targeted differentiation.
• Allows teachers to set clear expectations for students.
• Allows teachers to ensure a clear link between instruction and student outcome/assessments.
Danielson: Domain 1 Rubrics

Looking at the Rubrics
• Beginning on Page 1, let’s take a look at Domain 1 Rubrics of 1a – 1b – 1c- 1d- 1e- 1f.
• The Description: Read the description for Competency 1a: Demonstrating Knowledge of Content and Pedagogy.
• Highlight or underline key phrases within the definition that are most important to what the teacher must do.
• List all necessary components needed to receive a rating of either “Effective/Proficient” or “Highly Effective/Highly Proficient” in Competency 1a – 1b – 1c- 1d- 1e -1f
