Domain 2 - The Classroom Environment

I really enjoy and support this resource because the sections are quick, easy to read and in bullet points; an excellent starting point. Often, each section is no more than a paragraph, but points out what you need to know, getting to the important have to understand information.

Whether you are completing a quick self-evaluation or you are the evaluator, this resource quickly gives you an easy to understand visualization. 

I created this for my school based off of District Guidelines and expectations. It contains rights and responsibilities, both expectations and consequences. I wanted something that was quick, easy to read and direct.

This colorful data report clearly shows a "discipline" gap. Often my teachers tell me that they "treat everyone the same." That every student receives the same consequences, or the same warnings, or the same amount of parent phone calls. It is difficult for teachers to truly admit their own personal bias. This report shows just how much that personal bias is there, whether we want to admit it or not. The simple things, like boys versus girls, like black vs white vs Hispanic, consequences of sitting closer to the teacher or out in the hallway and how these consequences have a direct effect on later arrests, college or career readiness. This is a great resource to see how at-risk students might need to have that second thought before you might just say, they are treated all the same. Perhaps they shouldn't be?
