Assessment Portfolio
The following are examples of formative assessments that drive instruction and evaluate content mastery that can determine
differentiated instruction groups.
Rationale & Reflection:relationship. Teachers can use this assessment as a means to evaluate if they need to reteach this concept further or if students have grasped the skill of the relationship of what happens (effect) and why it
happens (cause). This assessment would be appropriate as a scoot game for whole group, a small group learning station, as intervention, or independent work. It is an accurate representation of learning if the student can identify which is the cause and which is the effect. I like this assessment because it is engaging
and an accurate representation of learning.
Cause &
Effect Pond
Rationale & Reflection: The purpose of this formative assessment is to be able to measure strengths and areas of improvement of each literacy skill within the same lesson. The letter cards are used for whole group assessment to be able to see which students have selected the correct answer. Being able to see these letter cards lets the teacher know who is getting it and who is not. Teachers may also use the letter cards to see who used correct
assessment is appropriate because it allows teachers to survey their students and for students to be honest without feeling embarrassed about sharing their answer. I like this type of assessment because it allows me to see which literacy skill needs to be retaught and which students are struggling the most.
I use the letter cards as a kind of formative assessment all the time! Not only does it allow me to know which students are
selecting the correct answer, but it gives me opportunities to create groups to discuss/debate and check for reasoning skills! I can say: If you know how we got that answer put up A, if you are not sure how we got that answer, show me B.
Formative Assessment of Nouns!
Rationale & Reflection: This assessment allows students to showcase their understanding of nouns and whether they are considered a person, place, or a thing.. The purpose of this
assessment is to see if students grasp word meanings in their relationship to noun types. This type of formative assessment is most appropriate for 2nd, early 3rd grade, and ELL students. I think it is an effective type of assessment because it is a sort activity that engages students either independently or in a group that requires
students to decipher between nouns that are people, places, and thing.s.
Math Quilt
Assessment
Rationale & Reflection: Not only is this practice for students in their addition skills, but it also lets the teacher monitor their understanding of basic math facts. This assessment is appropriate because it also allows students to self-assess because they know they must have answers in each square that allows them to have an overall pattern of colors.
Summative Assessments
The following are examples of summative assessments that can measure student
achievement at the end of a unit.
Writing Rubrics
Rationale & Reflection: The purpose of this assessment is to
Six Writing Traits that they have studied in class. In this particular sample the
student was graded on sentence structure/meaning, conventions, their illustration, and handwriting. This
assessment is appropriate because it sets clear expectations and goals that the
teacher will measure,
Summative Comprehension: Rainbow Comprehension
Rationale & Reflection: This kind of assessment is appropriate for students who are transitioning into comprehension assessments in the form of multiple choice. As students enter 3rd grade, they are being taught to ALWAYS go back to the text to find their proof. Rainbow comprehension scaffolds students to get to the point where they know to go back and find their answers. This is a perfect assessment for younger learners to
see where they are finding their text evidence and to show their teachers where they found their answers.
Rationale & Reflection: The students not only fill in the blank
with the correct vocabulary word, but they also have to make
their own sentences showing mastery of the word meaning. Students are instructed before the test to circle clue words in the paragraph to help them know what word to put in the
blank (which this student did not do). This type of assessment is appropriate because it engages
Taxonomy by students synthesizing their own
sentences. Students are able to show that they understand
what the word means and how to use it correctly.
Rationale & Reflection: In the Reading class, we learn a new reading skill/strategy every week. These concepts include Main Idea, Summary ,Cause & Effect, and Inferencing.This particular Weekly Assessment focuses on the skill Cause & Effect. The students are taught to look for bossy words and then use their strategy. The weekly assessment contains questions over specific reading skills and weekly vocabulary. This assessment is effective because it allows students to use comprehension skills paired with strategy skills to find answers in a story. It is most effective for students in the 3rd & 4th grade.
Weekly Skill Assessment
ASsessment In the very first formative assessment example, Miss Freeman showed an assessment about: A. Irregular Past Tense Verbs B. Cause and Effect c. Vocabulary D. Spelling
True or False: There were more examples of formative assessments than there were about summative assessments
