What are
Learning Progressions?
Learning Progressions...
Organize learning targets on a
continuum from simple to more
complex thinking
Outline how learning builds
toward mastery of the standard
Provide students with the
incremental expectations as they
work toward mastery
Are a tool for both students and
teachers that provide clarity of
what is being learned, and give
language for peer to peer, teacher
to student, and student to teacher
feedback

Step
Create the Learning Goal
Target - Level 4
Decide whether this standard needs to be
broken down into multiple learning targets
Maintain the level of cognitive demand
required by the standard
This target represents mastery
Step
Create a Cognitively
Complex Target - Level 5
These targets compel students to delve
more deeply into the content of the
standard
Consider how students might make
decisions, problem solve, experiment, or
investigate
Be careful not to confuse it with an
assignment or activity students will do, but
only what level of thinking will be evident
when students complete the assignment
Example: CCSS ELA- Literacy 7.2
-Evaluate the author's craft in developing the theme
Step
Create Success Criteria
The success criteria are written so that
students are demonstrating that they have
applied the learning target and are doing it
Use evidence tables (ELA) or performance
level descriptors (Math), or evidence
statements (NGSS) to help guide the
writing of your success criteria
Write in the form of "I can" statements for
students
They describe what is being looking for
when assessing whether or not students
have been successful in demonstrating
mastery of the standard
