Writing Instructional Goals
When you write your instructional goal be sure to use universal language so that the goal is open and allows students to respond to the goal in a variety of ways. Here are the examples we reviewed during the training.
- Example Goal - To write about the stages of butterfly metamorphosis.
- This goal requires all students to write to demonstrate what they know. If writing is difficult for a student then this is no longer about science but becomes a writing test. You may learn that the student struggles with writing but you may not find out what the student knows about the stages of butterfly metamorphosis.
- Updated Goal - To demonstrate understanding about the stages of butterfly metamorphosis.
- This goal leaves it up to the student to choose how they will demonstrate their understanding. They may do it in pictures, audio recording, presentation, writing, etc.
Here is another example.
- Example Goal - Draw a bar graph that (1) shows scale and (2) shows data.
- Again, this goal requires all students to be able to draw.
- Updated Goal - Design a bar graph that (1) shows scale and (2) shows data.
- This goal gives students options on how to design the bar graph. For example, it could be with manipulatives.
