Objective: I will identify my income each week and put it into a spreadsheet Objective: I will determine my expenses for each week, and place it into the spreadsheet.

Objective: I will subtract my expense from income, and determine my savings.

Question: What would be the next objective?

Educational Goals
Expectations held for groups of students

Broad Attainable Target to be reached Usually based upon state standards

Objectives
Define what you will have the students do State in terms of expected student behavior Specify condition of student performance

Specify level of student performance

2 ways of remembering - ABCD & SMART

Examples of Goals
Students will inquire about electric current and how electric circuits function. Students will realize that lines, segments, rays, and points exist not only on paper but in the world around us. Students will understand the processes that shape the Earth, which include the water cycle and the role of evaporation in this process.

ABCD Method
Audience- Who are your learners? Behavior- What do you expect them to do? Condition- How will the learning take place?

Degree- How much will be accomplished?

for your goal.

Blooms Taxonomy
Using powerful verbs is important when writing objectives.
Level 1: Knowledgedefine, identify, label, name, Level 2: Comprehensiondescribe, explain, retell Level 3: Applicationapply, demonstrate, construct Level 4: Analysisanalyze, categorize, compare Level 5: Synthesiscreate, design, visualize Level 6: Evaluationevaluate, justify, rate

Examples of Objectives
Science: In groups of two, students will be able write a description of electricity in terms of attraction, repulsion and sparks when asked after watching the power point,

with 95% accuracy.

Language Arts: Individually, students will write a persuasive essay, for or against restricting access

to the coral reef, that will coincided with a 3 rating (or a proficient rating) on the PSSA writing rubric.

Pick out the parts:

What is the audience? What is the behavior? What is the condition?

What is the degree?
