Planning a Task

Mastery Evidence

• Before starting a task, describe what they need to do and what order to do it in
• Break a larger task into smaller steps without being prompted — e.g. 'First I'll read the question, then I'll draw a diagram'
• Gather the materials or information they need before beginning, rather than starting and then stopping to find things

Assessment Prompt

“Before [child] starts a bigger task — like writing a story or making something — do they take a moment to think about what they'll do first?”
