Learning Intentions

Learning Intentions communicate, in student friendly language, the learning that will take place in the lesson. Learning Intentions should be revisited and referred to often over the course of the lesson and contribute to student success. “When students do not know what they are expected to learn, the chance that they actually learn is reduced” (Fisher, Frey, 2019). Evidence indicates when students know what they are supposed to be learning they are three times more likely to learn it (Hattie, 2012). Well articulated rubrics and exemplars are used to provide expectations for learning and clarify success criteria. Teachers invite students to explain what they learned and compare with the learning intention stated at the beginning of the lesson (Teacher Clarity Playbook, pg. 21).
