ASSESSMENT
Use the tools on the next pages to review and assess student learning.
These can be easily adapted for differentiation based on the specific needs of
your students, as well as based on the time available and your own preferences in
how to use them. Ideas for use and adaptation include:
• Assign review items to be done individually, or allow students to work in pairs.
• Allow students to complete (or check and correct) the Study Guide at a class review
session where answers are discussed aloud.
• Assign the Study Guide as an “open book test” for an important grade.
• Allow students to complete the Scavenger Hunt in small groups to be sure each
student finds and completes all the interactive wrap-up and review steps.
• Provide a Vocabulary Quiz word list for ELL or other students, as needed.
• Select an item to count as extra credit.
• Recruit student volunteers to help check students’ answers or workbooks.
• Review topics and use Study Guide questions in a classroom game.
Many of the instructional tools from the previous section also make great
authentic assessments. You can easily select which tools to use to measure and
document students’ understanding and application of new content knowledge
and skills, and to use the data to inform instruction, including any needs for
intervention. Student work on these assignments provides evidence of learning
that is well-suited for student portfolios and grades.
