For example, if you see a particular group not persevering, just grab a perseverance rubric and tape it up on their vertical surface. This will signal to that group that you are not impressed with their behavior and that you will be watching them while at the same time communicating exactly what it is that you will be watching for. And once in a while you will see a group member pulling out an old rubric for their group because that individual, or the group as a whole, is aware that they aren’t behaving as they should.
