Instructional Ideas

• When using these pages with very young pupils, have a short meeting with each child at the start and end of each week; you can write the notes and keep for your records
• Start weekly goals at the beginning of the year and continually reteach how to write goals with specific criteria that can be measured
• These goals don't need to be academic; invite learners to make goals related to behavior, friendships, sports, and other topics
