(1.) What intended learning outcomes or goals do you have for your students?
(2.) How will students demonstrate their achievement or understanding of these
learning outcomes?

together across tasks throughout the year.
-Base groups provide student-to-student support and a sense of routine in the
classroom.
-Students in these groups build long-term relationships and a support system that
encourages academic progress.
Behavioral Objectives: correct answer -State what is to be learned in language

have 3 parts:
1. Action— identifying the action that the teacher expects students to perform
