Today's started off with a brief run down of upcoming assignments and so forth. With the end of the semester very near, Dr. E allowed us to have in class work time. We have a presentation next Tuesday and Thursday which calls for us to present a lesson plan over a science activity. Since we have been learning about assessment within the last couple of class periods, this lesson plan is going to focus more no assessment than anything else. Because this lesson plan is due next week, Dr. E allowed us to get with our partners and work on it in class. She provided laptops for those who didn't brings theirs (including us because we forgot!). Overall, the day was very successful. With the help from Dr.E providing answers to any questions we had, my partner and I finished our lesson plan. We are ready to present it next week. Our lesson plan is focused on first grade and helping them develop an understanding for growth and change. Our activity consists of having the students construct a timeline of their own lifespan thus far.
Dr. E. also provided materials for us to reference when it comes to creating our assessments for our activity including materials over the nature of assessment, the purpose of assessment, the tools of assessment including purpose and impact, validity and fairness, reliability, significance, and efficiency. The information also included an assessment format along with other helpful and significant information. Dr.E also provided us with materials to read over if we ended up completing our lesson plans which was focused on meteorologists. This information was pretty neat. It informed us how, and with whom meteorologists work with, the equipment in which they used, how they predict the weather, and more. Overall, the class period was very successful. I really appreciated the in class work time due with finals and end of the year projects approaching!
