Excellent resource, adored by students, to track and chart progress. Set up to be used for grammar ('er', 'ir', 're', modal verbs and so on), but can be adapted to suit any learning objectives. Students are assigned a character and given a grid at the start of term, or half-term, depending on how many objectives you wish to cover. After each objective has been covered, they circle the traffic light for that square to represent their confidence and understanding - green for very confident, amber for okay but a little unsure, and red if they feel they still don't understand. Very useful for teacher to glance over, to set activities in class as groups, or differentiated homework / prep. A fabulous insight into the progress of students individually and as a class that is subtle and fun for them. In my experience they are very honest too as only they and you see the grid, rather than asking for thumbs or coloured cards to be held up in class.
