SET GOALS AND MONITOR INSTRUCTION
Students do not set goals related to the class’s content and skills.
Students may refer to goals that they have set previously. Goals that students set during the period may or may not be appropriate.
Most students set appropriate goals.
Not only do students set goals related to the class’s content and skills and monitor progress towards those goals, but they also discuss that progress with their teacher and peers.
