Chapter 7 Teaching Essentials //**Put Schoolwide Coaching into Practice **// //**By Christelle **// While reading this chapter I started to think about how I balance coaching with teaching. I know that I could do a much better job balancing the two but since I am now paying attention I am much more mindful of how I can take time to help with coaching my fellow co-workers. My grade partner and I are working on non-fiction text...
 * 1) We are meeting during our two prep periods during the week to compare non-fiction text.
 * 2) We use [|www.readingatoz.com] in order to find many of our non-fiction text in which we can level them according to our students reading abilities.

When working with other co-workers
 * 1) I have the opportunity to show my fellow co-workers ideas either during lunch-time, before, or after school.
 * 2) I also have the opportunity to go into their classrooms during my breaks to help them or observe them if help is needed.

I think that this chapter truly brought everything together that we have been discussing and is a wonderful chapter to refer back to when we become Reading Specialist/Literacy Coaches.
