Reading Goals look a little bit different from your students' point of view. Please see below for a walkthrough of what you can expect your student to see when they view their Reading Goals. Remember, if at any time you'd like to see what your student is seeing, you can masquerade as a student.
1. A student's progress on their current reading goals will display at the bottom of their dashboard.
2. The dashboard will display the shortest current reading goal. If students want to review their progress on all goals (weekly, monthly, and yearly), they can click on the Reading Goals button to see their current progress and historical reading periods with accomplished reading goals.
3. The Read Next Book button to the bottom right encourages students to quickly jump to another book to continue reading toward their goal. If you have assigned any books to the student, the Read Next Book button will take the student to their Assigned Books. If the student has completed all their assignments, they will be brought to the Bookshelf to find their next book to read.
4. As students read and complete goals, they will earn badges. When a badge has been earned, the next time the student goes to their dashboard, they will be presented with an animated badge. Clicking the X in the top corner returns the student to their dashboard.
5. Once students have earned a badge, the My Badges section will show up on their dashboard next to their goals. Their three most recently earned badges will be displayed in the My Badges section. Students can also click on "All my badges" to see all the badges they have earned.
6. Badges are automatically earned by students when they achieve specific milestones of reading a certain number of books, completing a certain number of Reading Adventures/Phonics Adventures or completing a certain number of goals. Here are all of the possible badges:
