Aim lines represent the goal or objective and
Aim lines represent the goal or objective and keep us on track toward that goal How to generate aim lines: 1. Determine the aim date and aim rate based on the criteria expressed in the student’s long-term objective 2. Draw an aim star (an A right side up for accelerating target, an A upside down for decelerating target) at the desired rate and date intersection.
Determining Aim Lines Baseline Number Hand raises A • • • Time
Determining Aim Lines Determine the mid-date and mid-rate of the LAST THREE DAYS OF BASELINE DATA POINTS. Mid-date and mid-rate are the median or middlemost points. Don’t average the points, simply count the # and take the middle. Middate: count left to right. Mid-rate: count bottom to top. Baseline # hand raises A • • • Time
Determining Aim Lines Draw an aim line through the mid-date and the mid-rate intersection to the aim star. Baseline # hand raises A • • • Time
