Summary
of Progresss
Various aspects of this domain were enacted throughout the year.
Below is an example reflective lesson students had to complete prior to
a summative assessment.
Write a short essay (3
paragraphs) about density. Answer these questions.
What is density?
How can you measure density?
What are some examples of comparative density? (things floating
on other things)
What lab did you enjoy the most and why? What did you learn?

A
reflective piece like the one above was done prior to every summative
assessment.
Throught the middle part of the year I diversified my assessments by
offerring two versions of summative assessments: blue and
black. Both test had the same point value, but the third section
of each test was different with the black version being more
challenging. For example, on the density test the blue version
had an atom diagram to label; whereas, on the black version students
had to draw and label an atom.
Also, about 2/3 of the way through the school year I switched
assessments again. This time I began testing all students via
Castle Learning.
