9. Standards vs Targets Learning Standards Learning Targets
Learning Standards are what we want students to be able to know (content) and do (curricular competency) at the end of any given learning period
Learning Targets are the combination of content and curricular competency written in student-friendly language. Learning Targets are specific to the lesson or unit and directly connected to assessment.
I can ask questions that help me understand why there are so many different animals living in Yukon.

10. Diving into Learning Targets
Answer the questions “What are we doing today?” and “why are we learning this?”
Explicitly connect the knowing with the doing by improving student understanding of the learning goals of a lesson or unit
Are used in the process of formative and summative assessment

11. Learning Targets Learning targets:
Are written in student-friendly language
Are framed as I statements (I can, I am able, etc.)
Each learning target combines at least one curricular competency and content piece
