Side Coaching


Strategy Explanation: Side coaching is when one student directs another in respect to actions, emotions, or concepts when they are engaging in a dramatic role. The purpose of side coaching is to encourage students to develop and follow their instincts and also provide constructive and positive feedback to others. A side coach could be used in any dramatic experience whether it be miming, mirrors, or theatre production. This strategy may encourage teamwork in the classroom, constructive commenting, and positive encouragement.

Cross-curricular Connection: Side coaching could be used in visual art to assist or guide students in their drawings. The side coach could provide the drawer with feedback and comments that help the drawer reach their goal or intended art piece.
