  • The Rating Scale for Learning to Be a Friend provides teachers with an evaluation tool to record information as to how independent students are when demonstrating the criteria for this task. The rating scale describes what the expected behaviours look like and provides a place for teachers to give specific and descriptive feedback to support the rating. Feedback can identify what the student is doing well as well as identify areas for continued growth.
  • This rating scale could be revisited at a later point in the year to determine student progress towards attainment of the learner outcomes.
