Evidence vs. Interpretation Evidence is… Interpretation is… Non-Judgmental • Teacher: when a car is accelerating its speed changes Judgmental • The teachers’ explanation of acceleration was clear Specific Generalized • 4 of 10 students raised hands • Students were minimally • 2 students had side engaged conversation

Types of Evidence Direct quotes of professional and students What the professional writes What students write on their paper Description of materials and how they are used Descriptions of what happened, in what order The number of times something happens

When to Provide Evidence: • Any area in which you identify yourself as Accomplished. • Events in the day’s lesson that happened prior to or after the evaluator was present. • If you disagree with the rating to support your claim.

Domain Activity • Read over each domain • As a table, identify 3 things that would use in planning your lessons to incorporate for each component. • Post results on the corresponding poster. • Gallery Walk
