FROM THE ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL

Students set regular goals, however the language used in the classroom is success criteria.

In the planning process, teachers think critically about the intention of the lesson/s to come. This enables them to create a success criterion, the success criteria caters for all learners and increases in knowledge skill and application over time.

Teachers use success criteria in various ways but always to enable students to know what it is they are learning and what their next steps will be. Most recently all staff attended a Professional Learning experience facilitated by James Nottingham. James promotes the use of learning intentions and success criteria in the classroom as a tool for students to become more independent problem solvers. As well success criteria provide teachers with very clear next steps for the students, enabling feedback on student work to be more focussed on the knowledge, skill or application that is being currently the focus.

I wonder if this thinking could apply to family life, what about this learning intention

I can respond to a request straight away.

I can complete a request in a given amount of time.

I can see what my next step in getting ready is and do it without being asked.

I can be ready before I need to be and help my siblings.

I’d love to hear if anyone tries this out.
