Comparing Fractions Exercise & Observation
Students are working independently to compare fractions using visuals after modeling by the teacher. The teacher can monitor and walk around to see where
students are struggling.
Summative
Definition: Type of assessment given at a unit or semester. This kind of assessment is typically high stakes and shows what the student has learned. It is normally graded.
Final Exam
Exam given at the end of a unit or semester that measures how much a student has learned. There is typically no room for adjustment in instruction because this assessment occurs after the instruction.
Project
After instruction, students have an opportunity to apply everything they've learned through a project. One project could be creating their own cereal brand where they have to use formulas for area, perimeter, volume, and measuring. Another project could be to create a design solely out of quadrilaterals and triangles using rulers and protractors.
Interim/Benchmark
Definition: a formal formative assessment where students test periodically throughout the school year. There is typically little to no student feedback. The data gained from these assessments can be useful for teachers to see growth.
District Assessments
Assessments given at the end of the six weeks or nine weeks that students take to show their progress.
MAP testing
Benchmark testing that is given at the beginning of year, middle of year, and end of year to track student growth in Math, Writing, and Language.

Fact Fluency pre-assessment
an assessment given o assess a student's fact fluency with addition, subtraction, and multiplication. This assessment can help teachers identify what mathematical error is occurring and plan instruction accordingly.

K - know. Prompts the students what they already know. Fractions such as numerator and denominators, how to tell which fraction is bigger when numerator or denominators are the same
W - want to know. Questions that a student has about a topic. How do I compare fractions with different numerators and denominators?
L - learned. What the student has learned after instruction. Compare fractions to 0, 1/2, and 1; sing ratio tables
-
Performance
Definition: Type of assessment where students demonstrate their knowledge through performance rather than through a test.
Portfolio
Either a digital or physical platform where student work is compiled to show either their best work or their progress. Examples could be a portfolio of best writing pieces.
