Analyzing my Results

  1. I Am good at these learning targets!
  2. Learning targets I got right:
  1. I am pretty good at these, but need to do a little review.
  2. Learning targets I got wrong because of a misunderstanding or simple mistake.
  1. What I can do to keep this from happening again…
  1. I need to work on learning these.
  2. Learning targets I got wrong and I’m not sure what to do to correct them:
  1. What I can do to get better at them….
