Wonders Assessment Plan for Sunset....
Soooooo, here it is! We will continue to do what we did last year! You may ask, "What did we do last year?"
Last year (I believe) we alternated between the Multiple Choice question assessment and the Constructed Response portion!
With the Multiple Choice portion, we opted for the first read/questions (but please review with your grade level and choose the same) - which ever is most rigorous and appropriate for the content just taught!
I will establish a spreadsheet for you to log your results. Mel will want to see this every time she is down!
Lastly, document on the sheet outside of the office, the date you finish up a weekly assessment.
Only One You rocks and butterflies
More on Assessment...
However, the Phonics Screener will be given by the Literacy Interventionists K-2, and AS NEEDED for students in grades 3-5!
Please give the Spelling Inventory (either Words their Way OR the one from the Wonder's series as they are virtually the same)! These need to be completed by the end of this week!
If you have any questions, please see Shawn or myself!
