Student-Centered Coaching: The Moves

By Leanna S. Harris and Diane Sweeney

"In this book the authors describe their unique approach to coaching, which is grounded in the belief that coaching conversations must focus, above all, on student outcomes. Such conversations are grounded in content standards (or, in the case of ELs, content and language proficiency standards) with the goal of guiding students to mastery of standards. This is a departure from popular models of coaching that focus on coach-teacher relationships or more "teacher-centered" approaches that focused on what teachers are or are not doing. This book provides a more-fine grained analysis of specific coaching "moves" that are used before, during, and after the delivery of lessons. The authors present a practical vision of what it looks like to engage in student-centered coaching across a rich array of contexts. With this new edition, the authors have added several new chapters on co-planning and co-teaching, partnering with the school leader, and measuring the impact of coaching, as well as new videos, examples, and tools that span grades K-12"-- Provided by publisher.
