Instructional Time Audit
Where does the time really go during a lesson?
This practical Instructional Time Audit, inspired by research cited in The Skillful Teacher, 8th Edition, helps you take an objective look at how classroom minutes are spent—on student learning, teacher input, transitions, logistics, and waiting or interruptions.
Use the tool to identify where even one or two minutes could be reclaimed—and then intentionally reinvest those minutes in student thinking, discussion, practice, application, or feedback.
