Learning Intentions and Success Criteria


A great article about the importance of providing students with rich learning tasks that engage students and help to understand why they are learning skills and knowledge.

Fostering growth mindset in learners allows for inquiry minds and deep learning.

I feel we are improving with writing learning intentions and success criteria as teachers, and we are also improving on implementing them in all we do. Our next challenge is proving students with the next steps in learning.
