Teacher tip

Give the child a few quiet minutes before starting, so they are calm enough to think.

How to use it

  • Focus on the plan for next time, not on the mistake.
  • Use a calm, neutral voice so the sheet feels like help, not punishment.
  • Slide it into a sheet protector and use a dry-erase marker to reuse it all year.

Watch for

Reflection sheets used too often. If a student needs one daily, look for a bigger need.

Talk about it

  • How do you think the other person felt?
  • How can this help you be ready to learn?

Take it further

Celebrate when a student uses their plan successfully.
