2. Formative Assessment for Learning

In what ways will you gather evidence of understanding (elicit evidence interpret evidence act on evidence)
throughout your lesson?
I will give a pre-test on Kahoot.it before lesson. This will assess prior learning and I will get immediate results
which will inform instruction. If 80 percent or more of my class passes the pre-test I will continue my lesson
as planned, otherwise I will scaffold learning with some extra time on vocab words and modeling.
I will give daily informal assessments where I check my students answers to warm up question that they will
work on with their partners. At the end of each day I will give them a repeat question from the warm up to
see if they got better after the lesson. At the end of the week I will give a quiz.
In what ways will students be engaged in reflection and self-assessment of their learning or the learning of their peers?

My students area always engaged with Kahoot.it quizzes, I also believe they will be engaged
to see their own growth at the end of each day as they will re-do their warm-up questions at
the end of the period and will be able to see if they learned something from the lesson. I will
also give gold starts for students who get the question at the end of the period correct.

3. Rigor and Relevance

Place the tasks that will demonstrate student understanding in the appropriate Depth Of Knowledge (DOK) Levels.
DOK Level 1 (Recall): DOK Level 2 (Skill/Concept):
Kahoot.it Pre-Quiz Warm-up informal assessments
Post lesson informal assessments (re-do warmup) Formal Assessment: (quiz)
DOK Level 3 (Strategic Thinking): DOK Level 4 (Extended Thinking):
Formal assessment (quiz) Warm up with partner, formal assessment (quiz)
