							| Is this obejective behaviour correct ? 
 |  
							| Hi,   Can you tell me if  this obejective behaviour is correct      A student will be able to guess the meaning of the new word correctly ?     Thanks in advance |  8 Jan 2011

							| Helo. If you mean for the student to wildly guess and have a slim chance of getting it correct then yes. I would, if the student is using context clues and such to get at the meaning, use deduce or a similar word. |  8 Jan 2011

							| as far as i was taught, objective mst be written using verbs that if someone comes to see your class he/she must be able to see that objective was accomplished. for example if you write and objective like: the student will learn the numbers from 1-10,   if i go to your class  how would i know the student learned them,  is there a way that i can get to see that?  maybe this link can help u     ed told you about the verb deduce but that is not an action that you can observe,so read the links so you gt the idea of whatverbs you should use.  |  8 Jan 2011

							| Of course Lz is correct. This link provides a list of verbs and examples you can use. The keys are that the objectives be observable and measureable. http://www.naacls.org/docs/announcement/writing-objectives.pdf |  9 Jan 2011
