Learning Objective: Make inferences, draw conclusions, analyze the text, and cite evidence to support their inferences.

The students analyzed articles about the Titanic, testimonials of people who survived the Titanic sinking, and the route map the Titanic followed the night it sank.

After reviewing all of these resources, the students made an inference. The students either inferred that the Titanic sinking was an accident and it was no one's fault, or they thought the accident could have been prevented.

The students backed their inference up with evidence.

The students shared their work in the form of an iMovie.

The students fill out this form every time they take Evaluate. The students set goals for themselves, track their progress, and reflect on their scores. The students keep this form in their classroom file, and I use this form when conferencing with the students about their Evaluate scores. Having the students set goals, track their progress, and conference with me about their scores each month has led to increased scores. I have tried giving the students candy if they meet their goal and offering incentives for classes that show the most growth, but this goal sheet has proven to be the most effective way to increase scores.
