5 Teacher: John is so smart but he he has trouble focusing and staying on task. Foster Metacognitive Awareness Strategy Use Survey: STRATUS ResearchILD, 2004, 2014 Rate yourself on a scale from 1-5: I have trouble breaking down my homework into smaller, manageable parts. Let s try to ask ourselves, Is the answer reasonable? This helps for reading & math. Foster Metacognitive Awareness ü MetaCOG Surveys to help students understand how they learn. ü Strategy Reflection Sheets. ü Strategy Share using peer coaching & peer mentoring. When I am learning something new, I connect it to something that I already know. When I do my work, I ask myself if my answers make sense. When I come to a word I don t know, I ask myself if there could be more than one meaning I use an outline or the STAR strategy to separate the main ideas & details I want to write about. I have trouble organizing my thoughts before I write.

Because I couldn t get how they were teaching, I always felt dumb. To self- understanding & confidence In SMARTS, I began to understand my learning style and that I was just as smart as my friends. I also learned strategies so that my homework was easier.
