A few "think-abouts" when you are providing instruction to a group of students:
- make sure you have your students attention before initiating instruction
- use a signal
- pace the lesson to maintain students attention
- keep the lesson moving
- use pair share
- have group responses
- be ready
- maintain close proximity to students
- be up and moving around the room
- don't sit at the computer or document camera
- transition quickly between tasks
- know your routines
- have materials ready
- refocus off-task students to the lesson focus
- make sure you have stated your expectations
- make them want to engage with you
