Post
Assessment
Context
&
Overview:
This
unit
plan
includes
ten;
thirty
to
forty
minute
lesson
plans
for
kindergarten
that
extent
the
course
of
about
two
weeks.
The
unit
was
taught
at
Smith
Elementary
School
in
Burlington,
NC.
The
unit
is
a
Math
unit
that
focuses
on
measurement
and
data.
There
is
a
diagnostic
assessment
included
in
this
unit,
which
was
given
the
week
before
the
unit
was
taught,
as
well
as
a
summative
after
the
conclusion
of
the
tenth
lesson.
The
summative
assessment
was
the
same
task
as
the
diagnostic
plus
an
additional
piece.
Because
the
diagnostic
assessment
and
part
one
of
the
summative
assessment
were
both
the
same
task
it
can
be
used
to
measure
student
growth
over
the
course
of
the
unit.
The
diagnostic
assessment
was
an
oral
assessment
and
I
recorded
the
answers
of
each
student
individually.
This
assessment
was
comprised
of
8
questions.
The
assessments
were
scored
based
on
how
many
questions
they
answered
correctly
(one
point
per
question).
The
summative
assessment
included
the
same
8
questions
plus
an
additional
piece
that
included
manipulatives
for
the
students
to
use.
For
the
additional
summative
piece
students
were
applying
what
they
learned
throughout
the
whole
unit
to
specific
tasks.
The
summative
assessment
was
graded
the
same
as
the
diagnostic
assessment
with
a
possible
total
points
of
8.
Essential
Understanding
(big
idea
of
unit):
The
essential
understanding
that
defines
the
conceptual
relationship
of
this
unit
is
using
non-standard
measurement
tools
to
measure
every
day
objects.
I
want
students
to
understand
that
measurement
is
used
in
their
every
day
lives
and
is
used
in
a
variety
of
ways.
For
example,
measurement
can
be
used
to
determined
length,
width
or
weight
of
an
object.
Moreover,
I
want
students
to
understand
that
measurement
is
something
that
is
not
just
used
in
America,
but
rather
throughout
the
world
as
well.
Students
will
understand
that
an
object
can
be
measured
using
a
variety
of
tools
and
that
the
measurement
will
change
depending
on
what
non-standard
measurement
tool
is
being
used.
My
students
will
be
able
to
apply
what
they
learn
in
this
unit
to
future
math
lessons
and
also
to
problem
solving
in
the
read
world.
Every
day
students
are
faced
with
problems
that
may
not
have
a
simple
solution
and
they
will
have
to
think
critically
in
order
to
succeed.
I
think
that
it
is
essential
for
each
student
to
understand
that
measurement
is
crucial
for
his
or
her
future
in
and
out
of
the
classroom.
Weather
they
are
building
something,
cooking,
or
weighing
an
object
they
are
going
to
have
to
have
a
fundamental
understanding
of
what
measurement
is
and
how
to
measure.
The
answer
will
not
always
be
obvious
and
students
will
not
always
have
the
necessary
tools
to
solve
a
problem
or
measure
something.
This
will
require
students
to
think
out
of
the
box
and
use
tools
that
they
might
not
otherwise
use.
I
hope
that
through
this
unit
students
learn
that
measuring
objects
can
be
done
in
a
variety
of
ways
and
is
used
in
many
different
situations.
st
Moreover
this
unit
incorporated
elements
of
21
content.
This
includes
students
problem
solving,
collaborating
and
working
together
to
give
each
other
feedback.
In
every
lesson
I
incorporated
problem
solving
and
students
working
together
and
sharing
their
ideas.
For
example,
in
one
of
my
lessons
I
asked
students
what
measurement
means
t o
them.
I
then
had
them
share
with
a
partner
and
collaborate
with
one
another
for
a
given
time.
Then,
students
shared
what
their
partners
said
and
other
groups
agreed
and
disagreed
with
the
statements
that
were
said.
Through
this,
students
were
problem
solving
first
individually
and
then
with
each
other.
Moreover,
they
were
giving
each
other
feedback
and
st
explaining
why
they
agreed
or
disagreed
with
their
peers.
These
are
21
century
skills
that
are
imperative
for
students
to
be
successful
in
the
future.
Lastly,
the
diagnostic
and
summative
assessments
align
with
the
essential
understanding
of
this
unit
and
gave
me
insight
into
how
students
were
doing
in
understanding
the
big
idea.
The
diagnostic
assessment
helped
to
determine
students
basic
knowledge
of
measurement
and
uncover
any
misconceptions
that
they
might
have
had.
After
administering
the
diagnostic
it
became
apparent
that
many
students
had
very
little
knowledge
of
what
measurement
is
and
why
or
how
objects
are
measured.
As
we
progressed
through
the
unit,
students
began
to
understand
what
measurement
is
and
the
procedural
steps
on
measuring
an
object.
By
the
end
of
the
unit
my
students
were
able
to
use
manipulatives
to
measure
something
and
tell
me
what
measurement
is
and
why
it
is
important.
The
summative
assessment
allowed
me
to
see
students
growth
in
their
understanding
of
measurement
and
apply
this
to
a
specific
measuring
task.
Their
growth
from
their
diagnostic
to
their
summative
assessment
let
me
see
that
my
students
had
grasped
the
big
idea
of
this
unit.
Assessment
of
Learning
and
Instructional
Effectiveness:
Model
1:
Pre
and
Post
Assessments
are
the
Same
Task
Besides
the
Post
Assessment,
I
am
also
using
an
additional
summative
assessment
to
provide
additional
information
to
evaluate
student
mastery
Assessment
System:
For
my
diagnostic
and
my
summative
assessments,
I
chose
to
use
the
same
task
model
with
an
additional
summative
task.
That
means
that
the
assessment
that
I
gave
for
my
diagnostic
was
the
same
assessment
given
in
part
one
of
the
summative
assessment.
The
diagnostic
assessment
was
comprised
of
four
different
sections.
These
sections
were
counting,
sorting,
measurement,
and
weight.
There
was
one
question
about
counting,
two
questions
about
sorting,
two
questions
about
general
measurement,
and
three
questions
about
weight.
Each
question
was
worth
one
point
for
a
possible
eight
total
points.
In
order
to
administer
this
assessment
I
had
to
pull
students
individually
to
the
back
of
the
room
and
orally
read
the
questions
to
each
student.
I
recorded
each
students
answer
on
a
worksheet.
For
the
summative
assessment,
I
used
the
same
questions
from
my
diagnostic
assessment.
This
was
still
worth
a
total
of
eight
points.
In
addition
to
this
I
also
had
another
summative
task
for
each
child.
The
summative
task
was
a
hands
on
activity
where
they
were
applying
everything
that
was
done
in
the
unit.
For
this
additional
task
students
were
using
non-standard
measurement
tools
to
measure
the
height
of
a
spoon.
They
then
had
to
think
about
weight
and
conclude
if
the
spoon
would
be
heavier
or
lighter
than
a
feather.
Lastly,
students
were
asked
to
sort
buttons
and
count
the
number
of
buttons
in
each
group.
Student
Mastery
This
assessment
will
allow
me
to
measure
students
mastery
of
the
units
learning
outcomes
because
I
will
be
able
to
compare
students
scores
and
knowledge
before
starting
the
unit
and
their
scores
after
the
unit.
If
my
students
are
able
to
increase
their
scores
on
their
summative
from
their
original
scores
on
their
diagnostic
then
I
will
know
that
they
learned
the
information
I
was
provided
them
with
during
the
unit.
My
assessments
were
aligned
with
the
standards
that
this
unit
based
on,
as
well
as
the
learning
targets
that
I
created
throughout
the
lessons.
Moreover,
all
assessment
items
were
aligned
with
what
we
were
learning
during
the
unit.
This
will
show
if
students
truly
learned
from
my
teaching
and
if
they
mastered
the
concepts
that
were
covered
in
the
lessons.
Below
is
a
table
of
specifications,
which
provides
evidence
that
my
assessments
were
aligned
with
the
standards
and
the
learning
targets
in
my
lessons.
The
table
also
demonstrates
the
cognitive
process
for
each
assessment.
*Table
of
Specifications:
see
attached
Justification
of
Item
Types:
I
choose
do
administer
my
assessments
orally.
I
decided
to
do
this
because
my
students
are
in
kindergarten
and
cannot
write
and
explain
their
thinking
to
the
questions
I
wanted
to
ask
them.
I
wanted
students
to
explain
measurement
and
data
in
their
own
words
and
to
do
so
I
had
to
conduct
an
oral
assessment.
The
questions
I
asked
them
were
open
ended
and
allowed
students
to
elaborate
in
their
own
way
in
order
to
illustrate
their
knowledge.
For
the
diagnostic
assessment
the
questions
were
general
questions
about
measurement
and
not
specific
because
I
knew
that
students
had
not
been
previously
introduced
to
this
material.
Due
to
this,
I
decided
that
an
additional
summative
task
was
needed
in
order
to
truly
showcase
their
growth
and
knowledge
of
measurement.
The
additional
summative
task
was
created
with
the
purpose
of
students
being
able
to
use
manipulatives
that
we
have
been
using
throughout
the
unit.
Throughout
the
activities
in
my
lessons
I
provided
guidelines
on
where
to
start
and
end
measuring
and
the
procedural
steps
involved
in
measuring.
For
the
additional
summative
task
I
did
not
provide
any
guidelines
or
structure
on
how
to
measure
the
object
at
hand.
Through
this,
I
was
able
to
truly
see
which
students
mastered
measurement
and
which
students
still
had
misconceptions.
Instructional
Effectiveness:
My
assessments
will
also
demonstrate
my
instructional
effectiveness
and
allow
me
to
determine
how
effective
my
instruction
was.
By
comparing
the
original
diagnostic
scores
with
the
final
summative
scores,
I
will
be
able
to
see
if
students
knowledge
increased
by
the
end
of
the
unit.
If
this
is
true,
then
I
can
conclude
that
students
learned
from
my
instruction.
If
students
have
higher
scores
on
their
summative
compared
to
their
diagnostic
I
will
know
that
students
benefited
from
my
teaching
instruction
through
my
lessons.
The
diagnostic
assessments
revealed
that
many
of
my
students
did
not
have
any
previous
knowledge
about
measurement
or
how
to
measure
an
object.
This
showed
me
that
I
had
to
start
this
unit
with
very
basic
information
and
build
our
way
up
to
critical
thinking
and
engaging
tasks.
Since
each
assessment
was
aligned
with
the
overall
big
idea
of
the
unit
and
the
learning
outcomes,
the
increased
scores
on
the
summative
assessment
verified
that
students
learned
from
my
instruction.
It
also
confirmed
that
my
instruction
was
effective
in
delivering
the
content
in
a
meaningful
way
to
my
students
in
a
way
that
allowed
them
to
grow.

attached
handouts
Analyzing
the
Results:
Since
my
diagnostic
and
summative
assessments
were
the
same
task,
I
scored
each
one
based
on
the
same
guidelines.
I
determined
these
guidelines
and
point
values
for
each
question
before
administering
the
tests
in
order
to
increase
the
reliability
of
the
assessment.
While
scoring
the
assessment
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
students
gave
me
the
correct
answer
and
gave
me
a
solid
explanation
to
support
their
answer.
I
explicitly
asked
students
to
explain
their
thinking
to
ensure
that
students
were
not
just
guessing
and
receiving
full
points
for
an
answer
that
they
guessed
on
and
did
not
fully
know
and
understand.
Each
question
was
worth
one
point
and
because
the
questions
were
open
ended
there
were
multiple
responses
that
students
could
have
said
to
receive
full
credit.
Prior
to
administering
the
assessments
I
had
a
rubric
of
correct
answers
that
I
would
accept
for
full
credit.
On
the
additional
summative
task,
there
were
7
possible
points
that
a
student
could
receive.
The
first
question
had
three
components
and
the
student
could
receive
partial
credit.
To
determine
if
students
improved
throughout
unit
I
compared
the
results
of
the
diagnostic
and
the
summative
without
the
additional
task.
The
additional
summative
was
an
added
grade
that
enhanced
my
understanding
if
the
student
mastered
the
material.
Reliability:
For
both
of
my
assessments
I
tried
by
best
to
use
the
same
types
of
items
in
order
to
increase
consistency
and
the
reliability
of
the
assessments.
However,
because
I
had
a
variety
of
learning
outcomes
to
teach
throughout
the
unit,
I
had
categories
of
questions
based
on
the
learning
outcomes.
For
example,
on
my
diagnostic
assessment
I
had
questions
that
fell
under
counting,
general
measurement,
weight
and
sorting.
I
think
that
it
was
difficult
for
students
to
u nderstand
how
these
categories
related
to
each
other
before
the
unit
was
taught.
I
think
that
the
categories
and
questions
felt
isolated
before
they
learned
the
material.
After
the
unit
I
think
that
students
understood
the
interconnectivity
that
the
different
categories
shared,
which
made
it
easier
for
them
to
answer
the
questions.
Before
I
administrated
my
assessments
I
also
set
clear
grading
criteria
guidelines.
Each
student
received
one
point
for
every
question
that
they
answered
correctly.
I
had
key
words/phrases
that
I
was
looking
for
but
because
it
was
an
oral
assessment
students
said
it
in
their
own
unique
ways.
If
they
gave
an
answer
that
corresponded
to
my
pre-
determined
response
than
they
received
full
credit.
I
was
looking
for
students
to
articulate
the
correct
answer
in
a
way
that
made
sense
to
them
and
showed
me
that
they
learned
from
my
instruction.
Setting
clear
guidelines
and
thinking
about
the
kinds
of
responses
I
was
looking
for
prior
to
administering
the
test
helped
the
scoring
on
the
assessments
to
be
more
reliable.
In
order
to
increase
reliability
of
my
assessments,
I
also
made
sure
that
my
diagnostic
and
summative
assessments
were
in
the
same
quiet
environment
in
the
classroom.
For
both
assessments
I
pulled
students
one
by
one
to
the
back
of
the
room
at
the
same
table
and
explained
to
them
what
we
would
be
doing.
I
explained
to
each
student
that
I
wanted
to
learn
about
them
and
to
see
what
they
have
learned
from
my
unit.
I
made
sure
that
students
understood
the
directions
and
the
understood
each
question
that
I
asked.
Moreover,
I
made
sure
that
the
room
was
quiet
when
I
was
asking
them
questions
and
that
they
were
not
distracted
while
completing
the
assessment.
Validity:
I
also
had
to
make
sure
that
my
assessments
had
validity.
This
means
that
I
had
to
make
sure
that
students
scores
on
each
assessment
would
give
me
a
valid
and
accurate
understanding
of
their
mastery
of
the
content
and
learning
targets.
To
ensure
this
I
made
sure
that
each
student
understood
the
question
and
what
I
was
asking.
I
read
the
question
once
and
would
wait
for
them
to
respond.
If
they
were
unsure
of
how
to
answer
I
would
restate
the
question
in
a
different
way
in
order
for
them
to
better
understand
what
I
was
asking.
The
object
of
my
assessment
was
to
assess
their
knowledge
of
measurement
and
to
determine
if
that
mastered
the
content
that
I
taught.
It
was
not
about
reading
or
listening
comprehension
skills.
This
is
why
I
made
sure
that
each
student
understood
the
question
before
answering.
I
also
increased
the
validity
of
my
assessments
by
ensuring
by
making
sure
that
the
questions
and
task
I
was
asking
of
them
aligned
with
the
learning
outcomes
that
we
had
been
working
on
throughout
the
unit.
I
wanted
my
students
to
demonstrate
the
knowledge
and
skill
that
they
learned
from
my
lessons
and
not
ask
them
to
answer
something
that
was
not
taught.
If
I
had
asked
them
questions
that
were
not
addressed
in
my
unit,
then
my
assessments
would
have
lacked
validity.
Lastly,
when
creating
the
diagnostic
and
summative
assessment
I
thought
about
the
wording
of
my
questions
and
made
sure
that
they
were
clear
and
easily
understood.
Since
it
was
an
oral
assessment
I
also
thought
about
multiple
ways
that
I
could
ask
the
same
question
in
case
a
student
did
not
understand
the
first
way
that
it
was
phrased.
When
I
was
grading
the
assessments
I
made
sure
to
have
the
guidelines
in
front
of
me
and
I
referenced
them
while
grading
each
question.
All
of
these
actions
helped
to
make
my
assessments
as
valid
as
possible.
Bias:
I
tried
to
avid
bias
when
grading
the
assessments
by
doing
a
number
of
things.
Firstly,
after
each
student
completed
the
assessment
I
folded
the
paper
over
their
name
and
graded
it
at
a
later
time
in
order
to
avoid
bias
and
to
grade
solely
on
the
responses
that
I
had
in
front
of
me.
Grading
the
responses
was
difficult
at
times
because
the
questions
were
open
ended
and
students
answered
the
questions
in
their
own
way.
Despite
this,
I
made
sure
to
reference
the
criteria
that
I
had
previously
set
in
order
to
avoid
bias.
Accommodations:
During
my
diagnostic
and
summative
assessments
I
did
have
accommodations
for
any
specific
child.
There
is
one
child
in
my
classroom
with
a
hearing
disability
and
has
an
IEP.
She
spends
most
of
the
way
with
the
specialist
and
was
not
present
for
my
unit.
Due
to
this
I
was
able
to
focus
on
the
rest
of
the
class
and
their
needs.
Since
my
students
are
in
kindergarten
a
majority
of
them
cannot
write
or
read
more
than
simple
sight
words.
For
this
reason
I
decided
that
an
individual
oral
assessment
was
necessary
for
both
the
diagnostic
and
summative.
Due
to
this,
I
was
able
to
work
one
on
one
with
each
student,
which
avoided
me
having
to
make
accommodations
like
I
would
have
done
if
it
were
a
whole
group
assessment.
If
this
were
a
whole
group
assessment
I
would
have
definitely
had
to
make
specific
accommodations.
Lastly,
I
did
include
elements
of
the
universal
design
within
my
assessments.
In
my
diagnostic
assessment
I
had
hands
on
manipulatives
for
students
to
use
to
count
the
number
of
objects
in
a
group,
a
pictures,
associated
with
a
question,
and
then
oral
questions.
For
my
additional
summative
task
I
had
more
hands
on
manipulatives
for
the
students
to
use,
which
appealed
to
many
students
as
well.

Data
Analysis
Looking
at
my
data
it
is
evident
that
before
my
unit
students
did
not
understand
what
measurement
was
and
what
it
is
composed
of.
The
average
score
on
the
diagnostic
assessment
was
a
3.5
out
of
8,
which
is
equivalent
to
43.75%.
Looking
at
this
data
I
realized
that
there
was
a
range
of
prior
knowledge
among
my
students.
Many
students
knew
very
little
about
measurement
while
a
few
students
had
some
knowledge
about
the
fundamentals
of
measurement.
Giving
an
oral
assessment
really
helped
me
better
understand
what
my
students
already
knew.
Having
conversations
with
each
student
allowed
students
to
explain
their
thinking
which
allowed
me
to
further
understand
what
they
did
and
did
not
know.
From
the
diagnostic
I
learned
that
my
students
did
not
know
what
measurement
is
and
how
or
why
we
measure
objects.
I
realized
that
I
needed
to
address
this
before
I
could
teach
about
using
non-standard
tools
to
measure
objects.
Looking
at
the
summative
data,
it
is
evident
that
my
students
learned
and
retained
the
information
that
I
taught
throughout
the
unit.
The
average
score
for
the
class
increased
greatly
to
an
80%.
Although
this
does
not
show
student
mastery
of
the
material,
it
shows
me
that
there
was
significant
student
growth.
The
total
amount
of
points
of
the
summative
was
8.
From
the
17
students
that
took
the
summative
assessment,
3
of
them
got
every
question
correct
and
6
students
missed
one
question.
In
my
diagnostic
assessment
only
1
student
received
a
7/8
and
no
student
received
an
8.
Due
to
this
I
would
conclude
that
the
students
learned
the
material
and
better
understand
measurement.
I
had
one
student
who
scored
a
4
on
the
summative
assessment.
If
I
were
to
continue
teaching
this
unit
in
the
classroom
I
would
work
with
this
student
individually
to
try
and
review
the
concepts
that
was
previously
learned
and
assessed.
Moreover,
this
student
is
an
English
Language
Learner,
so
I
would
also
change
the
wording
of
the
questions
to
see
if
this
would
help
her
answer
them
correctly.
While,
I
would
not
consider
this
student
to
have
mastered
the
material
her
score
did
improve
from
a
2
on
the
diagnostic
to
a
4
on
the
summative,
which
shows
that
she
learned
some
of
the
material.
There
was
also
one
student
who
received
a
7
on
both
the
diagnostic
and
the
summative
assessment.
The
question
that
the
student
missed
on
the
summative
he
got
right
on
the
diagnostic.
The
question
he
got
wrong
on
the
summative
asked
him
to
count
the
number
of
objects
in
a
group.
I
have
seen
this
student
repeatedly
count
objects
correctly
every
day
that
I
am
in
the
classroom.
Due
to
this,
if
I
were
to
continue
this
unit
I
would
ask
Noah
to
re-do
this
task
and
see
if
he
can
answer
it
correctly.
Despite
Noah,
each
of
my
students
scores
increased
from
the
diagnostic
assessment
to
the
summative
assessment.
This
shows
me
that
my
instruction
was
effective
and
my
students
learned
from
my
lessons.
I
also
included
an
additional
summative
assessment
task.
This
task
was
a
hand
on
task
where
students
applied
what
they
learned
throughout
the
unit
to
specific
tasks.
Firstly,
I
wanted
to
see
if
students
knew
how
to
use
the
non-
standard
tools
to
measure
objects.
From
my
formative
assessments
throughout
the
unit
and
working
with
students
I
knew
that
this
was
the
first
time
students
had
used
tools
to
measure
objects.
In
the
beginning
of
my
unit
students
struggled
with
using
the
tools
appropriately
to
reach
an
accurate
measurement.
As
the
unit
progressed
students
became
better
at
this
skill
and
were
measuring
more
accurately.
Throughout
this
process
I
was
constantly
providing
instruction
and
guidelines
on
the
proper
procedures
on
how
to
measure.
For
example,
I
would
constantly
remind
students
to
start
measuring
as
object
at
the
very
bottom
and
stop
measuring
at
the
top
of
the
object.
I
would
remind
them
to
not
leave
spaces
while
measuring
because
that
would
change
the
measurement
of
the
object
as
well.
For
the
additional
summative
task
I
wanted
students
to
measure
a
spoon
with
non-standard
measurement
tools
without
any
guidance
or
help
from
me.
I
wanted
to
see
if
students
could
measure
on
their
own
and
tell
me
the
measurements.
After
this
task,
there
was
a
follow-up
question
about
the
weight
of
the
spoon
and
a
sorting
activity
involving
buttons.
From
the
results
I
can
conclude
that
students
learned
how
to
measure
objects
and
that
they
can
do
this
task
on
their
own.
The
average
score
on
the
summative
test
was
a
88%
and
7
students
received
a
7/7.
This
task
was
also
administered
individually
and
orally.
Because
of
this
I
got
to
watch
each
student
complete
the
task
and
make
sure
that
they
were
measuring
properly.
Each
student
that
did
this
task
did
so
correctly
and
measured
the
spoon
accurately.
Overall
I
was
very
happy
with
the
results
of
the
assessments
and
they
show
me
that
as
a
teacher
I
am
being
effective
and
reaching
my
students.
I
was
also
impressed
with
the
level
of
hard
work
that
my
students
put
in
during
the
overall
unit
and
was
very
proud
of
all
of
the
information
that
they
learned.
