Pre-assessments provide valuable information on what students know and guide planning. Before beginning a new unit or teaching a new concept, educators can give a pre-assessment to gauge where their students are and plan how and what to teach.
Using the grade level of your field experience class, select two science standards.
Each standard should be from a different science strand for that grade level. For each of the standards, write 100-250 words addressing the following:
Standard and aligned objectives
Design a developmentally appropriate, authentic pre-assessment that aligns with the standard. You may incorporate activities your mentor teacher demonstrated during the observed lesson or shared during the interview that could be used to assess the learning objectives and science standards selected.
Scoring criteria for measuring student performance on pre-assessment (rubric, check-list, table, etc.)
Explain how this pre-assessment data could be used to modify and differentiate instruction for all students.
Support your findings with at least three scholarly resources.
