Goal Setting In DMIC Maths

This term the focus of my inquiry was goal setting and reflecting in DMIC maths.
If you look back to last term's inquiry update, I began using the goal chart that you can see in the photo above. I wrote names under each goal. However, to make it easier and more engaging, I printed out student's faces and students get to stick their own face on the chart! They have found much more enjoyment in getting to stick their faces up and I am able to refer back to this chart during the lesson to remind children of the goal they chose.

I have found 'group norm goal' setting to be very effective. Students choose their own goal, which gives them more ownership/responsibility over their learning!
