Sample 2
Sample 3
Oftentimes, we forget that formative assessment built around essential learning targets isn't JUST about getting information that teachers can act on. Formative assessment information can be just as valuable to students, who can develop a more sophisticated sense of what they have mastered and what they are still struggling to master. To make this work more doable, North Carolina first grade teacher Andrea Knight developed a series of graphing templates for her students to complete as a part of their data notebooks. Samples of three of those templates are linked above. You can read more about Ms. Knight's processhere on her blog. You can purchase her templateshere on her Teachers Pay Teachers page.
Grade 5: Digital Tools for Learning Teams
One of session presenter Bill Ferriter's passions is finding digital tools that can facilitate the work of PLCs. Here are some of his current favorites:
Mastery Connect- Tool for delivering traditional assessments and tracking progress by student and by standard.
Socrative- Tool for collecting all kinds of information during the course of regular instruction.
Plickers- Tool that makes collecting information during the course of regular instruction doable in classrooms with limited access to technology.
Class Dojo- Tool originally designed for classroom management, but that can be easily tailored for recording observations of student performance as well.
Zaption - Tool for developing tutorials that can be used to deliver remediation and/or enrichment in a differentiated classroom.
For more details on the kinds of tools that Bill has embraced for different instructional and collaborative practices, check out his Web 2.0 Quick Guide here.
