You point out the most important point… ...Michelle,<br />You point out the most important point… the goal is student independence. The tools overall should be geared towards helping students work towards that ultimate goal. like many of us, reflecting on the tools we are offering kids is key. I know that sometimes I get excited about a tool I’ve created because it turns out looking so great… but is it really effective? That is a question we will all need to get in mind as we start to explore tool building this summer.<br />I love that you have a goal to incorporate more student self-reflection and monitoring. I joked with my students that I had them “grade themselves” often because I had so many students (I can get away with that with my gifted learners!) but the reality is that when students are encouraged to take time to critically review their own work, particularly with tools like micro progressions, they gain so much and start to set their own goals for improvement.<br />Your visual of understanding micro progressions helped solidify things for me. Thanks for sharing it! Mrs.HWeberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06723974240853644960noreply@blogger.com
