SAVES TIME, SAVES MARKING, SELF-ASSESSING, OFSTED-TICKING RESOURCE! I create these ‘learning objective’ grids for every foundation topic that we cover in y5 and y6 in school. They are all based on our SoW and teaching sequence. Some staff choose to print it and keep it in their planner to refer to for ‘what next’, however, some staff (including myself) print these for each student and glue it in their book at the start of each objective which is great for avoiding wasting time by ‘writing titles etc’. Each objective does not need to be completed in one lesson, some objectives may take more than one lesson to cover. The children then mark their own work by ticking or levelling themselves (D, E or H) in the ‘S’ student column. I then mark their work in the same way in the ‘T’ teacher column. Students love this method of self-marking and I do too. I get instant feedback of how they think they’ve performed and we can see if we agree on their mark. They also have a full understanding of what they need to do to achieve their objective (great for an OFSTED visit - sorry I mentioned it). There is also a colum with R1, R2, R3. If I feel they haven’t achieved that success criteria, they then have to complete a Response question (a fantastic idea from a colleague of mine) at the start of the next lesson. It has cut marking time substantially, the children get meaningful feedback (response question) specifically linked to a criteria they have missed and all students are self-assessing and aware of their learning. If you don’t choose to print, this also makes a wonderful planning prompt to refer to so you can tick off what you have covered, what is next and what you need to include in your next lesson.
