Wax Museum Assessment

Details:
Creating formative and summative assessments for your assignments is   an essential part of guiding instruction for learning. Not only are   assessments ensuring that learning is taking place, they are checking   for mastery of skills taught.

In Topic 4, you created a wax museum project for your students. In   order to modify, strengthen, and adjust instruction as students are   creating the wax museum project, research and decide how you will   formatively assess students. Additionally, create a summative   assessment for the students.

Part 1: Assessment Plan

For this assignment, you will create an assessment plan describing   how you will conduct formative assessments while students are creating   the project, along with a summative assessment.

Your assessment plan should include:

• The social studies content standards, the arts standards, and     the lesson objectives from the original lesson that the assessment     plan will align to and measure.
• Four specific examples of     formative assessments you will implement.
• Description of a     summative assessment.
• Rubric for the summative   assessment.
• Your plan to provide effective, descriptive     feedback in a timely manner to students following the   assessments.
• Specific ways you will accommodate for students     with disabilities and language barriers.

Part 2: Reflection

Write a 250-500 word reflection describing your assessment plan. In   the summary address:

• How the ethical use of various assessments and data guides you     to identify students’ strengths and needs to promote   growth.
• How your assessments will support continuous progress     in teaching and learning and demonstrate gains in skills and   knowledge.
• How your assessments, both formative and     summative, can be differentiated to meet the needs of various   students.

Submit your assessment plan with your reflection as one deliverable.

APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
