We are really enjoying using the marking guide to assess our own writing . We are reflecting on our work and setting goals for our next writing tasks.

"We highlight the success criteria we have met and then set a new goal."

Room 16 are learning to be assessment capable students.

To encourage us to take a more active role in our writing and self assessment,  we have started to mark ourselves after journal writing. We decide what marks to give ourselves and then set targets and goals for the next week.
