SELF-ASSESSMENT/REFLECTION: (Complete this section if you have taught this lesson to peers or in clinical
placement):

The Chapter 6 test went really well as far as I could tell. The class average was 89% across the board which
means that student achievement was achieved because the lesson plans lined up with what was on the test and
that the key ideas were tested in meaningful ways to the students. I will definitely keep this in mind when
preparing all of my materials and assessments for the units that I am going to teach.
I feel that no re-teaching is necessary for this chapter because students were able to demonstrate competency on
this chapter 6 exam. I do feel that it could have gone better if the bonus question was actually present on the test
rather than just appearing on the projector screen. Some students may have had trouble answering the bonus
question because it was not directly in front of them but rather on the projector screen. I feel that a better
incorporation of that bonus question could have led to more students getting the correct answer.

In addition, students who were absent were at a disadvantage by not being able to view the bonus question
because it was on the projector screen. While this is okay in my opinion, I feel that students should still should
have the opportunity to have a bonus question of some sort (even if it was totally different). I do plan on making
multiple versions of exams that will discourage cheating from taking place.
