Planning assessment

The learning goals are assessed through an assessment plan created by the educator. The assessment plant consists of two different types of assessment. The first type of assessment will be done by observing students comprehension during the lesson. The instructor will observe, which students do not understand the five senses by observing how students are performing during each activity. The second form of assessment will be done on the computer, students are to complete a fun-sheet using clip art at the end of the lesson. These two methods of assessment provide content and cognitive complexity by allowing the educator to observe the students who need additional support, and one-on-on instruction. 

The assessment criteria is clear and linked to the learning goals desired for this lesson,  due to student engagement and participation. Students are learning about the five senses through different activities, and strategies all all promote learning of the five senses. This method will support students as they are learning, will allow them to build on the knowledge they already know regarding the five senses. Each activity is linked to a learning goal, a learning outcome, and are designed to foster students in their learning. 

The assessment plan does allow assessment modes to be created in assessing students performance through a instructional sequence. During this lesson there are a series of step that take place, and students are learning about each of the five senses, one at a time; this will be done to help students fully comprehend each of the five senses.  There are two types of assessment that will occur during this lesson (lesson knowledge during lesson, and funsheet). The first type of assessment will take place during the lesson, and will allow the instructor to help students to may need help, before they begin working on the fun-sheet requirement.

When the lesson is introduced the instructor will discuss what the topic for today's lesson will be, and also, provide students with a short explanation of what will be required of them during this lesson (behavior expectations). As the lesson progresses the instructor will inform students what they are to complete, work on, or do as the lesson is being taught. Students are required to listen and follow along to be able to flow the lesson, and demonstrate to the instructor they are activity engaged.  This is done by students listening to directions, and procedures that will be given during the lesson by the instructor. Assessments will be valid, and will be base on students activities and performance during the lesson to assess what the students comprehends with the class, and will also be assess by the completion of the fun-sheet in order to assess what the student know and comprehends independently.

The appropriate adaptations to assessment that have been made to meet the individual need of students have been incorporated into this lesson by allows students to be assessed in two different manners. By assessing students performance with the class the student will have the opportunity to ask for help, and will be guided by the instructor to help the student reach a higher level of understanding before assessment will be done independently.  If students need additional needs, their needs will be accommodated appropriately by the instructor.
