Formative Assessment Strategies-4 corners
Students choose a corner based on their level of expertise of a given subject.
Based on your knowledge of __________________ , which corner would you choose?
Corner 1: The Dirt–(There’s so much dust, I can’t see where I’m going! Help!!)
Corner 2: The Paved (It’s fairly smooth, but there are many potholes along the way.)
Corner 3: The Highway ( I feel fairly confident but have an occasional need to slowdown.)
Corner 4: The Interstate (I ’m traveling along and could easily give directions to someone else.)
Once students are in their chosen corners, allow students to discuss their progress with others. Questions may be prompted by teacher.
Corner One will pair with Corner Three; Corner Two will pair with Corner for peer tutoring.
Three questions your students should be able to answer each day
Why am I learning this? (relevance)
How will I know that I have learned it?
This concept came from Visible Learner concepts as developed by John Hattie. In the book, Visible Learning for Literacy The book talks about teacher's knowing their IMPACT. I have a copy of the book. I received the book at a presentation by one of the coauthors, Doug Fisher. The link above has a one hour video with Johnson and Frey (another coauthor) discussing concepts from the book.
Why do we need to learn this?
