Yes the management of achievement requires great planning on your part. It is helpful to identify the achievement targets then determine the evidence you will gather to note mastery of these targets and create exciting learning opportunities that will focus student learning toward these targets. Once this is determined you can devise strategies for communicating these efforts to your students and their families. The more planned you are the more successful you will be in managing student learning. Jann
