STANDARD #6: ASSESSMENT: THE TEACHER

UNDERSTANDS AND USES MULTIPLE METHODS OF


ASSESSMENT TO ENGAGE LEARNERS IN THEIR OWN
GROWTH, TO MONITOR LEARNER PROGRESS, AND
TO GUIDE THE TEACHER’S AND LEARNER’S
DECISION MAKING.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.2.3 - DESCRIBE THE
CONNECTION BETWEEN A SERIES OF HISTORICAL
EVENTS, SCIENTIFIC IDEAS OR CONCEPTS, OR STEPS
IN TECHNICAL PROCEDURES IN A TEXT.

My classmate and I created an Authentic


Assessment on making cookies/ desserts
while also addressing the 2nd-grade
standard based on writing “How-to” papers.
The students would be required to work
with their families on writing a How-to
paper on cooking or baking a dish from their
cultural background. We decided that it
would be a great idea to have the students
bring in the dishes they wrote about to
celebrate the classroom's cultural diversity.
We created the assessment to be different
and give the students the opportunity to
learn more about themselves.

I hope to use this assessment or something


similar with my students in the future. I
enjoyed creating the lesson and infographic to
help the students create their own “How-to”
paper.
