Right away, certain patterns emerged. First, great teachers tended to set big goals for their students. They were also perpetually looking for ways to improve their effectiveness. For example, when Farr called up teachers who were making remarkable gains and asked to visit their classrooms, he noticed he’d get a similar response from all of them: “They’d say, ‘You’re welcome to come, but I have to warn you—I am in the middle of just blowing up my classroom structure and changing my reading workshop because I think it’s not working as well as it could.’ When you hear that over and over, and you don’t hear that from other teachers, you start to form a hypothesis.” Great teachers, he concluded, constantly reevaluate what they are doing.

Bergmann ja Sams havaitsivat että he pystyivät keskittymään enemmän oppitunnilla olemaan läsnä yksittäisille opiskelijoille, auttaen heitä yksittäisissä ongelmissa ja väärinkäsityksissä koskien opittavaa asiaa. Samalla luokan opiskelijat, joille uusi opittava asia on jo auennut, saavat arvokkaita rooleja tukiessaan toisiaan luokkahuoneessa. Samalla he syventävät omaa oppimaansa auttessaan luokkatovereitaan.
