We are revamping our assessment for Democracy in Scotland with the help of Shona and West Partnership. The idea we have is to give the pupils a choice in presentation method (poster/ppt/video/news report etc) with the main task being to inform peers about what an MSP does in an average day. We will co-create a success criteria then each group's work will be presented to the class with the rest of the class ticking off said success criteria and giving 2 stars and a wish. As its groupwork, we will give each pupil an assigned role so that we can gauge the whol group's understanding.

S1 have been studying the drama Frankenstein and learning about theme, narrative and characterisation . A high quality assessment could involve a mock court case where the monster is put on trial and pupils are each assigned a role as a character who will be called l the witness stand for their view on whether he is truly guilty or his creator is ultimately guilty. This will enable them to think deeply about the theme of science v humanity and isolation while summarising the narrative as well showing their understanding of characterisation.

I have used written summative assessments alongside group presentations in which each pupil takes on the role of a different member of a team trying to find a new planet sustainable for life. One pupil looked at rocket design, one at health, one at optics and the other at fuels. They were then graded not solely on content but on group work and presentation skills.

3rd years currently working on volleyball. They are all quite competitive and have a high skill level. I organised small skill competitions for the first lesson on a double period. They had to serve over the net and hit coloured spots. They received different points for certain spots. Vertical jump contest to see who could jump the highest then a team relay with fun activities. These points all counted towards the second period where they were placed into teams depending on their points. This was a useful way for me to observe prior teaching and learning and make sure the skills that were taught were embedded in their practice.
