There are various assessment strategies that teachers should use in their classrooms. Different assessments can be used for a variety of purposes, including determining if each student achieved the desired outcomes of a lesson or evaluating data to determine if re-teaching needs to occur. Assessing students before, during, and after instruction guides the teacher in how to modify and adjust instruction to meet the various learning needs of students.
Imagine your principal has noticed how successful you are in using various types of assessments in your classroom and has asked you to present your knowledge in an upcoming professional development for grade level teachers.
Create a 10-12 slide digital presentation introducing the types and purposes of classroom assessments and the use of assessment data to guide future instruction and next steps in planning.
