In this episode of The Balance, I dig into why the teacher-led station is the heart of the Station Rotation Model. I share how I use this time with small groups for differentiated direct instruction, modeling sessions, and need-based instruction driven by real-time data.
I also discuss how I facilitate rich discussions using Webb’s Depth of Knowledge questions and incorporate the feedback process into the classroom through formative feedback on work in progress. With concrete examples from math, reading, history, science, and writing, I show how the teacher-led station makes personalized learning and UDL feel doable and sustainable for teachers.
