GUIDELINES IN MAKING SCIENCE PORTFOLIO

Portfolio is a collection of work “to support reflection that can help students to understand their own
learning and to provide a richer picture of student work that documents growth over time” (Barret,
2005)
Portfolios show progression in learning over time. Selecting portfolio pieces allows for student
choice, and their own evaluation of what best showcases their learning. Reflection is a key portion of
the portfolio – allowing students to consider their assignment, learning, strengths and weaknesses,
and how to improve. As a student progresses through grade levels, peer review and constructive
commentary play a role for student self-assessment and opportunities to plan progress

NOTE:
Your portfolio in science is a collection of outputs and performances. It is a reflection of yourself. So
please make it organize, informative, neat, creative and learnings (reflections) must be relevant. Your
portfolio and reflection will be recorded under Performance Task.
Here are the parts of your portfolio.
I. Introduction
Guide Questions
a. What is a science portfolio?
b. What is the goal of creating a science portfolio?
c. What is the importance of creating science portfolio?
d. About the author/owner/writer of the portfolio. (In here, you must be able to
introduce yourself in your most creative)
II. Contents
A. Written Works
1. Quizzes/Unit Tests/Chapter Test
2. Assignments/Home works
