9. Goals
You will notice that I have learning goals posted at the front of the room. Before we start class, a volunteer will be asked to read the objective or goal for your class. Keep in mind that the goal statement begins with these words: “I will be able to.”

10. Scales I want you to be able to evaluate how you’re doing.
I want you to be able to communicate that self-evaluation to me.
In order for this to be effective, we need to be speaking the same language.
I call this Fist to Four.
