Teaching Learning Leading K-12

Formative Assessment, Part 2: Mini-Whiteboards and Stickies as Formative Assessment Tools. This is episode 796 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast. Mini-Whiteboards and stickies make awesome formative assessment tools for helping you understand what the students get about your content and what they don't.  Formative Assessment is for determining what your students know and don't know. It is purposefully placed in your lesson plans. The type of formative assessment chosen is also determined ahead of time and placed in your lessons. The data gathered is used to make adjustments to your instruction. Additionally, the assessments are not graded.  Help your students be successful. Use formative assessment to make a difference.  Time to get some mini-whiteboards (you can even make your own) and some stickies. So much to learn. Have fun! Check out my Pinterest board on Formative Assessment for ideas and instructions on how to use different formative assessment tools. (See below for the link.) Great
