They complete posters to diagram the different systems they learn about. We also play a review game in teams using white boards.]]> 2018-05-14 14:11:45 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260477834 I use observations and active questioning/answers, graphic organizers, puzzles, and word games about the skills/content we cover. I have used two projects this semester to assess comprehension of leveled chapter books the students chose from the class library. Also, I have an online progress monitoring data assessment that is used every 15 days that helps to assess comprehension, fluency, vocabulary, phonics/spelling. https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260481538 2018-05-14 14:19:22 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260481538 Weekly Quizzes https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260483408 We use these to see what we need to review the next week on bell work.]]> 2018-05-14 14:23:20 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260483408 Weekly Tests & Quizzes https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260485776 We use formative tests and quizzes weekly or bi-weekly to assess our students understanding of the concepts in each of our CIP units.  ]]> 2018-05-14 14:27:36 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260485776 Questioning https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260487137 During lessons, I use strategic questioning to assess student understanding and comprehension. ]]> 2018-05-14 14:30:18 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260487137 Review Games, Warm-ups, Exit Tickets, Group Activities https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260495699 I give lots of quick, "low-risk" assignments that help me gauge where my students are on new material...oh! And I also always use pre-view/anticipation activities to help me know where to start with a new subject/concept. ]]> 2018-05-14 14:46:53 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260495699 I Have...Who Has https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260500649 We use "I have who has" in order to check for student understanding and review.]]> 2018-05-14 14:56:18 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260500649 Individual Assessment https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260517503 We use this daily as a review type exercise]]> 2018-05-14 15:31:18 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260517503 Open ended questions and reflection journals https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260533380 Scientific inquiry is very important and these two strategies are some of the best to gauge student thinking. This also allows me to steer them in the right direction in a way that is meaningful to them. These seem to be the hardest for my students, yet they are the skills that many employees will be looking for in "real-world" applications. ]]> 2018-05-14 16:03:35 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260533380 I have the students answer questions throughout class. Sometimes they will get to work in groups and discuss concepts with each other. They then will present their final results to the rest of the class. We then can have a class discussion to see if we are all on the same page. https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260560907 2018-05-14 17:08:10 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260560907 Minuto Loco reidabilidad https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260572211 Minuto Loco are 60 second drill checks we do with verb conjugations.

We use daily bell ringers and discuss as a class as well as review at the end of each class with a short game or paragraph response. ]]> 2018-05-14 17:48:37 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260579245 Bell Ringers, Exit Slips, Mini-quizzes (one question), targeted verbal questioning. The formative assessments are usually short and target a specific skill. https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260585985 2018-05-14 18:04:09 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260585985 Bell Ringers https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260588722 Helps to ensure students get what I needed them to get yesterday, recap, and move on to today.

I check their work along the way by walking around and making suggestions or jumping into their Google Docs/Slides and making comments. I also use Nearpod for notes and get instant feedback through the various interactive activities. https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260602154 2018-05-14 18:40:22 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260602154 Formative assessments- I feel that a teacher needs to use several types of assessment to make sure you are meeting all of the student’s needs in your class. The more variety of assessments you use the more data you can get about student learning. Some assessments that are formative can be very long for students to complete like test but there are also immediate fast results you can get when doing formative assessments on students like the simple thumbs up . These quick types will give you immediate results so you can continue or change at that time if needed to help with student understanding, application, and knowledge of what you are trying to teach. https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260610909 2018-05-14 19:00:05 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260610909 Formative assessments-Students need to be assessed for knowledge and skill based on where they are. This means that not every assessment will look the same, they will be differentiated. For example, students may verbalize knowledge about a particular objective instead of writing it. https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260619700 2018-05-14 19:26:19 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260619700 We do active questioning, graphic organizers, quizzes, tests, 15 day progress monitoring, observations and cloze activities. https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260620064 2018-05-14 19:27:46 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260620064 https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260620293 Exit Tickets can be useful to tell what you may need to review the next day.  We use exit tickets to discern the difference between LaMark and Darwin's findings on natural selection.]]> 2018-05-14 19:28:39 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260620293 Bellringers are a great way to create structure for the beginning part of your class. Students know to expect some work within the first 10 -15 minutes of class. How long students take to complete/gather the information, indicates for me how much more we need to be doing to get the objective across. https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260620592 2018-05-14 19:29:55 UTC https://padlet.com/reidabilidad/xycw0tqps6vr/wish/260620592
