Formative+Assessment

Montrose has been working on FA for the past two years with classes and each teacher continually evaluating our test scores during teacher in-service.
 * __Ways I used formative assessment:__**
 * Daily Learning Targets
 * I posted the standard.
 * Weekly I review items from this standard.
 * Each student has written reading and writing goals in September, so they know what they need to improve on throughtout the year.
 * The standard we were working on (R.R4.1)
 * I administered an Achievement Series pre-test over this standards and will be given a post-test also.
 * I gave a DAC test to share with the parents.
 * We blogged monthly to the Juniors.
 * The students constructed a Web Page.
 * The students made a Power Point on an explorer.
 * We used my Wiki space to do writing, reading, and spelling activities.
 * Do a one to one meeting to dicuss projects.
 * Using the Smartboard daily (hourly) as a daily assessment.
 * Introducing Senteos using it in Science and Social Studies.
