- • Hook: Show the MP1 benchmark list and ask students to raise a hand if they know they have a gap.
- • Why it matters: Marking period grades close at a set date; unresolved gaps become permanent.
- • Today's structure: 10 min revision, 30 min tracker audit, 25 min gap planning and resubmission if possible, 15 min final submit.
- • Exit goal: Final memo and completed tracker audit submitted before the bell.
- 1Revise your counseling memo from Thursday using one piece of feedback or one missing detail.
- 2Open your tracker and confirm all marking-period-one benchmarks are marked complete.
- 3List any missing evidence and the date you will complete it.
- 4Submit your final counseling memo and tracker audit for the week-end summative.
- • You'll be able to deliver a complete, accurate counseling memo.
- • You'll be able to verify your MP1 evidence is closed out.
- • A tracker audit is not a formality: missing benchmarks can delay course credit or pathway certification.
- • Revising with specific feedback is more effective than re-reading your own draft.
- • Naming a concrete completion date for missing work converts a vague intention into a plan.
