PLC

Terra
brought student math assessment questions to the table, since report cards are
on our minds.
The
issue was how to assess student work when we are integrating multiple strands
within the discipline. During math
class, students are participating in authentic and engaging activities that
encompass many different concepts.
The
problem arises of how to accurately represent their learning in their summative
numeric assessment for the reporting period.
We
came to the conclusion that it would be best to assess on a particular strand
each term. This would not
necessarily have to be the same strand for each student, however, by the end of
the year each student would have a comprehensive assessment of math.
In
two weeks, Arruda, Thibeau and Xavier will bring student work from the projects
discussed during previous PLCs to look at and comment on.
