Formative assessment strategies.

10/28/2013

Some ideas for techniques to integrate formative assessment into your classroom:
  1. Quick Writes: Give students two or three minutes to write about what they heard or learned in class.
  2. 3-2-1: Jot down three ideas, two examples of uses of the idea, and one unresolved question.
  3. Muddiest Point: Student disclose the least clear or "muddiest point" in the lesson.
  4. Quick Check: Use whiteboards or index cards to have ALL students write down answers. Have students hold up answers all at once to gauge understanding.
  5. Idea Wave: Have students list three to five ideas, then go down the line like a "wave" at sporting games and collect ideas until you have enough to work with.
  6. Tickets: Ask a specific question about the lesson. Have students respond and give the response before they leave class or before they enter class the next time.

    I will reflect on ideas and practices I learn through my formative years as a classroom math teacher.
