Pupil AfL review of own learning - My Learning Journey

(0)
Excellent resource for charting and assessing student progress within lesson. Slide can be printed and students given a copy, or slide can be displayed for students to draw their own learning journey arrow on a whiteboard at the start of the lesson. They circle where they feel they are in terms of their confidence with the LO at the start of the lesson, and then come back to it at various points. At the end of the lesson, they review their learning and should be at the higher end of the scale. A useful reference tool for the teacher to determine those who need more support, and those that can be pushed further. Useful for daily teaching, or to use over the course of a module. Great when being observed too as very visual signpost that learning is being monitored by teacher, and those students that need support / further challenge are being picked up and helped appropriately.
