How to Address Specific Group Errors

To implement the Good-bye List:  

• Recognise a repeated group error, such as a word, problem or skill.  
• Model the correct answer.  
• Write the word, problem or skill on the Good-bye List.  
• Use a goal of three repetitions of the skill on consecutive days with no errors.  
• Review the word, problem or skill on the Good-bye List each day.  
• Mark (using a tick) next to the item each time the group answers correctly on the first try.  
• Mark (using x or –) next to the item each time the group does not answer correctly on the first try.  
• Erase or cross it out when there are three consecutive tick marks; students say ‘goodbye’.
