On Pinterest last year I saw a ton of awesome writing goal displays and I tried a few with my last year's class. It never really took hold because the goals changed faster than I could create a new chart. This year I came up with the display in the picture. I'm sure there's other ways that are just as good, but this is working for us now. I just change the post-it notes as we change goals. I think little clips would work too, but I eventually want to have the kids write their own goals so I may stick with post its. The only downside is falling post its (maybe I'll try the kind that restick?" I wrote them the first round, but I already have some kids wanting to change their goals a week into it (the ones that had quicker fixes like printing size). I'm having them show me the evidence though with writing samples in their WOW journals (Work on Writing). I can't decide on how many samples I'm going to require them to switch the goal up...any thoughts?
If interested in the goal chart I'm offering it as a FREEBIE on my TPT store:
