  2. Error Analysis/Learning Trajectories Project • 7th grade students • Word Problem • Expressions and Equations • Students misunderstanding of given information • “He deposited some more money and his account balance was $28.00” • Problem solving exists across all grade levels • Re-read problem & analyze carefully • Ask essential questions

  3. Definition of Assessment • Not an event • A process in which we gather evidence • Make inferences/draw conclusions • Act on those conclusions • Constructive; assists in fostering students learning • Opportunity to demonstrate understanding/skills • Mutual feedback on what is clear/unclear

  4. Guidelines for Designing Assessments • ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL • Incorporate Universal Design; usable by all people • without need for adaptation • Simplify the layout of problem • Directions are clear/simple • Language/Vocabulary Structure is simplified • Use familiar context for students • Mindful of bias/sensitivity (religious/political)

  5. New Jerusalem ElementaryDemographic Data 7th Grade • 28 total students • 57% White • 29% Hispanic or Latino • 11% Black or African American • 3% Asian • 11% English Learners • 39 % Socioeconomically Disadvantaged

  6. 2011-2012 Demographics • K-8th grade • 215 students • 52% White • 33% Hispanic/Latino • 7% Black/African American • 3% Asian • 3% Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander • 1 % Filipino • 46% Socioeconomically Disadvantaged

  7. ASSESSMENT DATA • 7th grade Mathematics Star scores for 2012-2013 • 54% scored basic or below basic • Measurement & Geometry • Appropriate Lessons for this area include: • Constructing geometrical figures • Solving real-life mathematical problems involving angle measurement, area, surface area, and volume of cylinders, cones, and spheres

  8. Measurement/Geometry 5th - 8th Grade • 68% of 5th grade students scored basic or below basic • 69% of 6th grade students scored basic or below basic • 62% of 8th grade students scored basic or below basic • Assessment data indicates the need for intervention across the grade levels to help • Students acquire the understanding and problem solving skills necessary

  9. Online resources • Used across multiple grade levels : • Shape explorer http://shodor.org/interactivate/activities/ShapeExp • Angle Measurement: http://oswego.org/ocsd-web/games/banana • Alien Angles: http://www.mathplayground.com • Jack the Builder: http://www.bgfl.org • Robot Packer: http://www.eduplace.com/kids/mw • Exploring Congruent Shapes: http://www.learnerorg • http://www.orecity.k12.or.us/staff/curriculum_resources/mathematics/instructional_resources

  10. Various Types of Assessments/DOK • Selected Response (DOK 1 or 2: multiple answers vs. multiple choice, matching, recall, classify, interpret, comparing) • Constructed Response ( DOK 3 requires strategic thinking, constructing, drawing conclusions) • Extended Response (DOK is level 4, due to connecting, analysis, and design) • Importance of designing own assessments/rubrics

  11. Current Assessments Used in my Classroom… • Asking good essential questions • Facilitating group discussions/tasks/roles • Student created problems • Making daily observations • Record observations: Sample Annotated Class list • Self Assessment: Quiz/Test corrections • Rubric

  12. Strategies Used… • Total Physical Response • SDAIE Strategies • Think/Pair-share • Modeling • Video clips • Manipulatives • Note taking strategies

  13. Assessments I plan to use in the future… • Crosscheck Technique (teacher predicted score, confidence score, actual Score) • Student Journals (concept/idea, learned, examples/questions) showcases personal & creative view of Mathematics • Student Projects (opportunity to integrate mathematical concepts & apply to context of choice)

  14. Portfolio Assessments • Student Portfolios • Demonstrates the growth of their mathematical knowledge and performance over the duration of topic/course • Examples of their work/understanding/skills • Requires brief statement for accomplishment • Student self assessments
