9:40 - 10:20 - Finish [|objective evaluation task]

When writing an object, be sure it can be evaluated and that it is specific and **purposeful**. Always start with a strong, measurable verb. -> Have confident objectives. Don't use words like "hopefully"... Objectives are important to keep class on track and provide a goal, but do not rely too heavily on them and forget to focus on student progress and the actual lesson.


 * Objective writing mini assessment - Using the following CC standard, write two objectives at two different levels of Bloom's Taxonomy. Write a SWBAT version and a student friendly "I can" statement for each.
