Teacher tip
Set the weekly goal with each student based on what they can do now.
How to use it
- Keep trackers in a data folder kids can reach on their own.
- Celebrate progress, not just finished goals.
- Slide it into a sheet protector and use a dry-erase marker to reuse it all year.
Watch for
Goals that are too big. Break them into steps that can be reached in a week or two.
Talk about it
- What will you try next?
- What is one thing that went well this week?
