Just turning it in can be the easy way out for some of our Mountain Climbers!
In our 5th grade SpEd/RTI meeting we had an interesting discussion around how many of our students need would benefit from building the skill of revision as normal procedure of the day. Often for them turning in a low quality product is a relief, knowing they will never see it again. The “turn in” can be an escape from having to maintain high standards. We felt like incorporating a revision process for many assignments will be a benefit to their learning.
Here is a video of Ron Berger from Expeditionary Learning, showing the value of critique and feedback for revision.
