Learning Objectives, Activities and Success Criteria Learning Objectives: “What are we going to learn?” Activities: “How are we going to learn?” Success Criteria: “How do we know if we have succeeded?”
Learning objectives need to be: • Shared with the children • Clear to the children • Linked to success criteria

Marking writing against success criteria • highlight 2 or 3 aspects of the writing which meet the learning intention/success criteria; • ask for a small improvement - oral or written; • allow time for children to respond.
Ways to respond - ‘Closing the gap’ • Reminder prompts • Scaffolded prompts • Example prompts (See handout) Quality marking ~ within the unit of work ~ at the end of a unit of work

Rebecca’s writing Peering through a crack in the old rotten door, Gwendoline looked at the area around her. She found a secret handle which had climbing ivy all over it. She shifted it out of the way. Gwendoline opened the door. She shivered. Closing the door behind her, she found herself in a giant greenhouse. It was filled with rushing sweet peas. Teachers Response ~ Well done - you have used complex sentences and some powerful verbs. (underlined) ~Think of another word for ‘found’ and re-write your sentence. ( highlighted in pink - a reminder prompt)
