There is a lot of value in a physical checklist. Trying to remember a list of things often doesn't work, since it's easy to forget or get distracted. The checklist doesn't always need to be shared with the students, but sometimes it can be helpful to fill them in on what will be the topics of the day to get them engaged. 

I appreciate the fact that you shouldn't hide or alter your personality to teach - use what kind of person you are to your advantage, and teach in a way that connects to your students and feels genuine.
