Five habits, one hour, and no claim that there is a single outstanding lesson.
The session opens by refusing the question it is named after. A room most often takes pupils busy, engaged, quiet and the content covered as evidence of learning. They are poor proxies for it, and saying so on the third slide is what makes the rest credible to a staff who have sat through this topic before.
What follows is five habits, taken one at a time with a worked example and a common mistake each: set the room · make it clear · check the thinking · respond in the moment · make learning matter. Nothing in the hour names a subject, a key stage or a framework, so a primary teacher, a PE teacher and a languages teacher can all use it the same morning.
The session is two files. The slide deck is what the room watches. The facilitator pack is what the person at the front holds: a run sheet with what to say, what to ask and what to drop if you started late, the handout, twelve rehearsal cards, a three-week walk log and the follow-up. One is no use without the other, and neither needs anything made.
