Informative assessments, such as observations, work samples, and quizzes, give me insights into what students understand and what they are struggling with. 2. Formative assessments, such as exit tickets or quick checks for understanding, allow me to adjust my teaching in real time. 3. I feel informative assessments can especially help me better support each young child’s learning and growth by highlighting their strengths and areas for improvement.
