Case: Formative/Summative Assesments in Kindergarten
In our school system we have recently been given a new assessment policy. We must complete seven formative assessments and two summative assessments in each subject in each nine weeks. I teach kindergarten and every subject. I have had many struggles with making this policy appropriate for my kindergarten class. Oftentimes, these students can not write yet and can not read yet. Any suggestions for making this policy more kindergarten appropriate?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I teach Pre-K and I too run into that problem. Pictures and circles are a good way to start. A formal assessment based around basic lines, circling, and alphabet are the beginning. Also I would use chart paper during large group so that the students can practice on it, to introduce the concept of your assessment the first 9 weeks, so that by the middle of the 9 weeks they understand what you are asking. I have tried it with Pre-K and they are able to circle the picture and choose what does or does not belong. At least it is a start for those students that do not read or write. |

Comments: This is a great idea. You can also walk around to students and have them explain to you their work. Then you can write down their responses. |
