#8 STUDENT-FRIENDLY LEARNING TARGETS TEMPLATE Academic Content Standard/Learning Goal:

Student-Friendly Learning Targets

Instructional Tiering How Might you Assess?

Going Beyond These targets are for students who have already mastered the standard or learning goal and are ready for enrichment. You can “go beyond” with content, levels of Bloom’s or a combination of both. (Note: greater text complexity works, too.)

Mastering the Standard/Learning Goal These targets are the minimum level all students need to master. Mastering these targets means that the student is “working on grade level.”

Laying a Base These targets contain prior knowledge and skills students must have in order to master the standard.

Consider: • In what order would you teach these targets to students? In other words, what is the best

learning progression? How would you group them for instruction?

• How would you formatively and summatively assess mastery of these targets?
