New strategies
are created to
meet needs of
specific
students or
class as a
whole in order
for the desired
effect to be
evident in all
students.
Strategy is
used and
monitored to
see if it has
desired effect
with the
majority of
students.
Strategy is
used correctly
but the majority
of students are
not monitored
for the desired
effect of the
strategy.
