WALT Books

 

At a recent cluster meeting we discussed ways of displaying, and more importantly, referring to, our Learning Intentions and Success Criteria.  

Whilst many of our classrooms have them, they are at risk of being covered up and are often rubbed off our whiteboards after the unit has finished which makes referring back very difficult for our students.  Renee was able to come to our rescue with the aid of her WALT (What are we learning today) books, and has provided this post to tell us more about them.
