In order to engage in high-quality asses sment, teachers need to first identify specific lea rning targets and then to know whe ther the targets are as king students to demonstrate their kno wledge, reasoning skil ls, performance skills, or ability to cre ate a quality product. The teacher must also understand what it will take for students to become masters of the lear ning targets. It is not enough that th e teacher knows wher e students are headed; the students m ust also know where th ey are headed, and both the teacher and the stu dents must be moving in the sam e direction.

The M&Ms were out o n the table ready to be tossed and counted. As I looked th rough their tables of s pecifications, I learned that hardly a nyone was working c onfidently at level 3. So, we took a poll. Do we postpone the M&M lab to work more on negativ e exponents? Rarely d o I get 100% agreement, but today I did. Yes, please Ms. Go ugh. We need to w ork more on negative exponents . And, will you tea ch us about exponents that are fractions?

If formative assessme nt informs the teacher s and learner and causes a change in practice or beha vior, then this was definitely formati ve assessment.

I truly believe the formative assessments are helpful for using as study guides for tests. I use them as study guides and I learn from my mistakes through them. I do like the fact that they are not graded because it takes the pressure off of taking them and makes me believe it is okay if you do not know the material at first. They are really helpful for going back and looking at what I missed, and then ask you for help on those questions. Having the four levels really helps because I know what levels I need to work on so that I can keep moving up to a higher level.
