 After the MAP Assessment is taken in the fall, they should record their scores.

Reflect on where they wanted to be when they predicted their score.

Did they make an

unreasonable prediction? Why/Not?

 Next, have students predict what their spring score might be – they should make a goal

that is reasonable and realistic.

If they used effort, then a small gain is expected,

but if they make the goal too lofty, they are setting themselves up for failure.

You

will need to coach them on this step using the “expected goal” from the data on the

nwea website.

 At Fall conferences, share the students’ goals and have the parents sign the goal

sheet

 Goals should and MUST be visited throughout the school year.

Have student’s keep

their goal sheet and mid-year have them reflect on their written goal.

Questions you

might ask them include:

“Think about your goal and your performance on GLB’s… have

you done what you said you would in your goal?

What do you need to do to ensure you

meet your established goal?

What assistance do you need to ensure you meet your

established goal?

It might even be a good idea or activity to Pair/Share their goals and what

steps they are going to take between now and the Spring test to ensure they

meet their goal.

 In the spring, they should record their scores. Reflect on their year’s

accomplishments.

Did they meet their predicted scores? Why/Not?

How might they

improve next year?

 Reflect on their Goal Area’s Written Goals:

Have students reflect on the written

goals they formulated in the fall and reflected on mid-year.

Questions to ask might

be:

What actions led to you either achieving your goal or not achieving your goal?

What goal area gave you the most challenge and why?

What goal area do you feel the

most confident about your progress or achievement and why?
