What to do

1. Write it as: "I'm trying X because I want Y. I'll use it with Z group and look for A."

2. Use it at least three times. Once is too few to judge.

3. Decide: keep, adapt or drop, and say why.

Short on time?

Write the one-line experiment and start it in your next lesson.

Quick win for your next lesson

Ask learners. A two-question Form at the end, "What helped? What got in the way?", tells you more than guessing.

Reflect

Pause for a few minutes. Short notes or bullet points are enough.

  • STOP:

    What happened each time?

  • THINK:

    Who did it help, and who needed more?

  • PLAN:

    Keep, adapt or drop?

Next step

Bring the evidence together in Stage 6.
