Day of Assessment
8. Explain to students that is an assessment to show what they know about themselves and other language arts and math standards covered in this unit. This is only to help the teacher know what to teach, so they should not worry if they dont know some answers.
9. Read the questions and answers to the students. Circulate around the room to make sure students are following directions and keeping up with you. Make sure you model each question with an overhead transparency or with a copy of the diagnostic clipped to the board.
10. In questions 1 & 2, use the [Froggy Goes to School] book. 11. In questions 3-17, students circle the answers or fill in the blanks. 12. Questions 18-20 are graphing. 13. Question 21 is a performance activity that the teacher must see the children use
one-to-one correspondence. Be sure to mark their answers in the space below #23. Write the number of counters the student correctly counts out.
14. Dont let students linger too long. Have them move on if they dont know the answers.

Student Directions: Listen carefully to me. I will read each question and the answer choices to you. This is an assessment to show what you know. If you do not know all the answers, its ok.

Then mark the student checklist. 7 and 7a should be marked as either correct or incorrect. This will show the teacher how to adjust the instruction of this unit. Some adjustments that might need to be made would be to skip lessons that students already show mastery of, or extra time should be spent on a certain lesson that seems to be missed consistently. Use the diagnostic checklist to measure student growth after the last summative is given.
