Incorporating learning goals in the classroom is an effective way of helping to close any learning gaps while helping students become more reflective learners. This Classroom Goal Pack is a complete bundle of Reading, Math and Writing Goals. Proven to be effective, it helps to enhance learning and motivation while encouraging students to reflect and improve upon their skills and abilities. Included in this pack: - 131 different goal cards (28 reading goals, 73 math goals, 30 writing goals) - 21 wall chart variations Each goal card is approximately 8cm in height. How to use: These goal cards can be used in a number of ways. 1) The goal chart can be laminated and displayed along with a photo of the student. There are various goal charts to choose from. The student’s goals are attached to the goal chart using Velcro dots or blue tack. It is important to note that these goals should be chosen jointly with students to provide a sense of ownership. If you wish, students can unfasten the goal cards and take them with them during activities. They can then be reattached to the chart at the end of the lesson. Alternatively, if you do not wish to use the goal chart then the cards can be kept elsewhere. 2) Before students begin an activity, provide each student with 1 or 2 goal cards which are in line with their learning needs. They must check and re-check that they have achieved the learning goal. The goal cards can be returned to you at the end of the lesson. To see a snapshot of the goals, take a look at the preview! This pack is 25% compared to purchasing my individual goals separately.

Hi friends! Today was our second day of school..and, well, it went better than the first!! ha! I always forget how tiring these first few weeks in kindergarten is! I'm here to show you a few pictures of my classroom! I always feel like it's a work in progress all year. And I hate how bare my walls are right now...but just give it a few weeks and anchor charts will be plastered everywhere! This is the view standing at my door. I am SO jeajous of all of you with windows! I have none! I never know what the weather is like until we walk out into the hallway for recess! I love that little saying over on the left. And ignore those big boxes of math books that I haven't unpacked yet! :O Here's my calendar wall. I mainly do calendar on the Smart board and with our interactive calendars, but we use this to refer to and to count the days we've been in school! The monthly calendar headers are from my friend Kristen. I am in LOVE with them!! These posters are from my Guided Reading: Fluency Fun packet. I use these posters as we learn new punctuation marks in our daily questions. This is my "I can" board. I really need to work on putting this together in a packet..but as of now I do not have it together! I worked on it all year last year! ;) I'm in love with those little kid silhouettes. I saw them in Maria's classroom {which is TO DIE for!!} and knew I had to add some of those little guys to my own! My chalkboard alphabet is from Maria, too! I love it! I am in LOVE with this little ribbon tassel! Jennifer from First Grade Blue Skies made the CUTEST one and I had to make one of my own! I made is using a whole lot of hot glue and all of the random ribbons that I had in my craft closet! They could probably coordinate a little better...but I was so happy to get rid of some of that ribbon! These numbers are a freebie in my shop. Hop over to snag them up! Thanks for stopping by!
Ahh what a day! I don't think there is any feeling comparable to walking into a classroom that is absolutely empty, and in a few magical weeks, transforming into a space to inspire young minds! It may be one of my favorite parts of the job. Today, I created a goals bulletin board. I half got this idea off Pinterest/ half tweaked it to fit my class' needs. We have daily classroom meetings in room 10! I love this. It brings us together and lets the students know they are a part of a team! I created this board to remind my friends what goals we have set for the week, the day, and even the month! I love that this board isn't limited to just curriculum. I can already imagine using this board to set goals for teamwork, behavior, and even longer term goals. My brain is full of ideas! I plan on using it like the following example: Today we will: complete our study guide for chapter 7 of math. So we can: ace our math exam on Friday! We will know we have it when: we can show off our smarts in the review game! * Note: I changed the last portion from the idea on Pinterest from "I" to "we". This is a personal preference only because we will be using it as a classroom set of goals. Although this board is simple, I love its functionality! I'm getting that back to school excitement!

The buckets are packed with goodies, and the kids were soooooo excited to start our new guided reading groups this week. I have 5 different groups with 4 students in each group. Each group will be reading a different Jerry Spinelli novel: Wringer, Report to the Principal's Office, Maniac Magee, Loser, and Fourth Grade Rats. We do guided reading each day, and all groups work at the same time. My resource teacher works with me during this time, and she meets with (runs) the same group each day - she works with my below grade level group. I meet with two different groups each day (I read with one group, then I work on the task with a second group). This way, I meet with each of my four groups every second day, and my group that needs help the most has teacher support every day. Our overall focus for the next four weeks is Literal Comprehension (this is our division focus for my school). Each group also has a subfocus they are working on in their groups (vocabulary, phrasing, expression, accuracy, and conventions). I know conventions isn't a typical guided reading group focus, but for this particular group, it is a necessity! On Tuesday we built our Literal Comprehension Anchor chart - establishing our learning goal and building our success criteria. Each student copied this chart into their reading journals. This is one of my student's journals. I was WOWED by it - such attention to detail! (Now, if I can just get her to stop spelling summary with an 'e' I will be one happy teacher!). Each day after reading the students have two tasks. First, they need to answer literal comprehension questions from their reading. They can discuss their answers as a group, but each student is responsible for writing their own answers in their journals. The next task is something new I started this year. I created a Summary of Learning sheet for each group which I posted on my bulletin board. Each sheet has the novel name and the groups' subfocus written on it. After each day of reading, students are required to write one thing they learned from their reading each day on a special coloured sticky note. This should relate to their group's subfocus. They then post their notes on their sheets on the bulletin board. I created a special "Summary of Learning" section in my guided reading binder to keep track of all these sticky notes. Each day as I take down the old sticky notes so the students can post their new ones, I will add it to their page (a piece of blank paper inside a page protector). It will be so neat to see the growth in their reflections. Happy Thursday!!!

I had the opportunity to visit another school yesterday to be a part of their site review team. It was an incredible experience and something I wish teachers had the opportunity to do more. Seeing wonderful teachers in action is the BEST professional development, in my opinion! One thing that I noticed in classrooms was a focus on Learning Targets. These were written on the front board and teachers & students referred to them throughout the day. One teacher had a great gesture to go along with these targets: At the end of the lesson, she had each student aim an imaginary bow at the target and if they felt they had "hit the target" they would release their imaginary arrows toward the board- loved it! Here's my Learning Targets board: It has had a ton of revising this year, but I am really enjoying this new look. I picked up these magnets from Learning Resources and love them! The top poster I made and you can pick it up for free below. I use the "I can" language to make it easier for the kids to understand. I definitely need to try to incorporate the bow & arrow movements :) Click HERE to download this sign for free! Do you all post your Learning Targets for each day or week or month? How does your board look? I started a new Pinterest Board on Learning Targets and Objectives-I would love to add your photo to the board- leave your link in the comments below! **UPDATE** Ryan is so excited we are talking about this!! ;) Source: google.com via Stephanie on Pinterest

Over the last few years, there has been a bit of a push in schools to be creating and displaying a Learning Focus for each lesson. At my school, we are required to display our Learning Intention and Success Criteria to match. This needs to be visible to the students and written in child-friendly language. I can definitely see the benefit of this as not only does it enable teachers to stay on track, it also gives students an opportunity to self-assess and reflect on their own learning. The only problem is however, it can be a little time consuming creating these statements and then displaying them. Initially, I started writing them on my whiteboard but then it would get in the way and I'd end up rubbing it off. Then I tried printing them out - which took time and wasted paper and ink. I recently experimented with this and it has worked a treat! How I created it: I have used an A3 sized plastic pocket (it is quite thick and durable). These are available at Office Max or Office Works. I used an A3 coloured card for each subject and glued my Learning Intention and Success Criteria sheets on it. Then I placed this in the plastic pocket. This allows me to use it every day. I just write on top of the plastic pocket using a whiteboard marker and rub it off using a tissue when I am ready to write the new focus up. I made one for Reading, Writing and Mathematics and colour coded them. Too easy!!! Both my Learning Intention Posters and Success Criteria Posters are available HERE: I hope this little tip has inspired you with your own Learning Goals Display! Until next time,

The strategy of inferring is often seen as a more difficult one to teach, especially with younger students. Teachers have reflected on how to teach inferring so that students are able to draw out information that is implicit yet still relevant. Many have turned to connecting this strategy with predicting (in the early years) and resources often used are wordless picture books and illustrations in texts. Another powerful strategy to teach inferring is through the use of images and photos. Using images from current events integrates media literacy with reading and allows students to be able to discuss what is going on in the world around them. In her lesson, Kvitka has done just this. She has used photos from different natural disasters around the world to teach inferring and create a safe space for students to share their thoughts and feelings. Using the O-W-I strategy from Nonfiction Reading Power, Kvitka has looked at different images together with her class to break down what they infer from them. This is the first image she used, right after the disaster in Japan: After spending some time viewing the photo, the class completed an O-W-I chart together. Kvitka had her class focus on each category separately first, so students looked at what they observe, wonder and infer from the photo. The next lesson looked at another photo, and again, students brainstormed together under the separate categories. As Kvitka reflected on the work, she decided to reorganize the class chart and instead of going down the column of each category separately, she went horizontally on the chart, connecting the students' observations, questions and inferences. This reorganization was important to her as it allowed her to talk to her students about the process of making an inference... we use what we see and what we wonder to make an inference. Part I: Following the two whole class lessons, Kvitka began her next lesson talking to her class about her reflections and how she reorganized the chart. Her students were able to identify the importance of using what they see and wonder to infer. From this discussion, she co-constructed the success criteria for making inferences together with her students. This allowed students to think about what they need to do to be successful at inferring. Their prior knowledge from the previous whole-class lessons helped them understand what is expected. Part II: Students worked together, in groups of 3, to infer connected to the image they were working with. They listened to one another and shared their ideas, making sure all voices were included. They then noted what they observed/wondered/inferred on their O-W-I sheet. While groups worked, Kvitka visited each group to see how they were doing. These are the six images Kvitka chose to work with, weaving in different current events, like the photos from Haiti, Egypt and New Zealand. She also used three photos connected to real-life situations. Part III: After each group had enough time to work on their inferences, the class came back together to share their thoughts and ideas. The O-W-I strategy comes from Adrienne Gear's Nonfiction Reading Power:

I gave a little glimpse of my other Michael’s project on Instagram, but I also wanted to share it here, because I am super excited about it. Our district adopted the Marzano Teacher Evaluation System last year, and we are slowly easing into it. This year part of our focus is on posting target learning goals. There are ALL sorts of ways to post target learning goals, and I hope that this method works for me. In our Marzano training, we have learned that it is best to write your learning goal in front of and with your students. Teaching Kindergarten, we all know that this can be a bit tricky! So, here is what I have come up with… It’s super easy to make…I purchased these magnetic dry erase boards from Michaels. Michael’s has TONS of ribbon in all sorts of patterns and widths, so I picked up a few spools, some letter stickers, and check out that chevron Washi tape! The project is SUPER easy. You can whip it out in about 15 minutes! (Less if you don’t add the ribbon flowers) You can also use dry erase markers to write your learning goals directly onto the board. Super easy, colorful, and fun! Here are a few other examples for posting target learning goals. Click on the image to go directly to the source! (Love the portion of her whiteboard where she posts the supplies the students will need) I’ve always loved this one – it’s so clean and simple! Since this is a BRAND NEW thing for me, I would LOVE to hear how your school requires you to post your learning goals. Do you write them in front of the kids, while your write your lesson plans? HELP! Link up below with how you manage your target learning goals!

Hey there! This little blog brings alot of enjoyment to/for me. I write about what I do, because I love it. I started a facebook link to it a short time ago and am amazed as it hit 413 'likers' today. This is a huge responsibility and I amazed that other people, like you, also like it enough to keep coming back - so a huge thank you. Click here - Learning Intention Tags Why display the Learning Intention - you can refer back to it at any point in the lesson, the students can see it at anytime. It makes us all accountable. An example of a clear Learning Intention is ... We will write a recount or We are using two step problems Keep them simple and in 'kid speak' Success Criteria is a break down of skills that you might achieve. I will full stops I will use capitals correctly I will have a plan I will re read This is where differentiation fits, they are recorded and referred to throughout the lesson. I have included Maths and Math tags for you to use. There are also tags for Reading, Writing, Word Work and Inquiry Learning. There is a set of definitions as well as instructions on how to use them. I have added an extra set of tags with topic specific clip art. If you already own it, you can download the updated file straight away at no cost to you. This is a great way to have learning visible in your classroom and make your learners accountable for tasks. It is a great way to bring all your grade together at share or reflection time. The display of the learning Intention makes your learning sequence clear and everything relates back to that and there is no confusion as to what learning needs to take place. The Learning Intentions make goal setting more streamlined and related to relevant assessment. Here is the link Click here to grab it

Querendo eu seguir e me orientar por algo ou alguém que efetivamente seja salubre e satisfatório no resultado, na consequência. O parâmetro que muito me convém e devo observar se há na comunicação e ações: a compaixão, a empatia. Sem isso predominando e incentivado, haverá apenas a demagogia, o titereio de regalados; o inculcamento frequente da ilusão de melhoras futuras que nunca virão, pois, concretamente — sobre a realidade — se está estruturando o adoecimento e um miserar progressivo. imagem no link: doe um café (^^)! I want to follow and be guided by something or someone that is actually healthy and satisfactory in terms of results, consequences. The parameter that suits me very much and that I must observe if there is in communication and actions: compassion, empathy. Without this predominating and encouraged, there will only be demagoguery, the puppeteering of regalia; the frequent inculcation of the illusion of future improvements that will never come, because, concretely — on top of reality — illness and progressive misery are being structured.
