2. Our students Now they need to
have the regularly reflect on
SMART goal those goals, in the
template in a blog, to help them
wiki achieve their goals
Lets watch a quick tutorial about how to use a
blog
3. Back at
the PLT
meeting I came across this on the ultranet support site, a
cool module that has key questions students could
use when they are reflecting on their goals.
Why reinvent the wheel!!
I think we should use these
questions. And any others
that we can add that will
help our students.
4. • How could you use this
Some questions to prompt reflection learning in different
ways?
• What did this make you • How have your ideas
think about or wonder? changed?
• Two things I have
learned...and one thing I
still wonder about?
How could you do this
differently next time?
• What did you learn that
you didn't know before?
5. Lets save time and pool
all our strategies. That
will improve our students
abilities to reflect on
their goals. And save us
all planning time!!
7. O.K what

place to work on my homework also helped me to finish it quicker.

complete it.
9. GOAL “I want to write a letter to the Shepparton News on
the issue ‘What can the Government do about Victoria’s
water problem?’ that is a page in length and completed by
June 28th. I’ll write at least one argument every night, cross

checking with the Persuasive Text guide.” It took two
drafts…
Draft one: I used the guide to keep me on track, it gave me a chance to check my work
to see if I was on the right track, rather than wait until the end and having to start
again.
Draft two: Having the guide, breaking the letter down into smaller parts or
arguments, made it easier to develop each argument separately until I was
satisfied it gave a strong message. This was easier than trying to do it all in
one night
10. After a while I’ve noticed
some of my kids get I’ve got a few ideas to pursue
