Testing, Testing

Testing drives many of the choices that I make as an educator. I am able to use this data to reteach when needed, create flexible groups, and make lesson plans. I use all types of assessments, but I find formative assessments to be especially useful in my day - to - day teaching.

• Administrated STAR test to assess reading skills
• Administrated Accelerated Reading for reading comprehension
• Administrated curriculum based assessments
• Used AIMSWeb and Fountas and Pinnell for running records
• Administrated online/paper 4Sight Tests
• Administrated PSSA’s in reading, math, science, and writing
• Used Emetrics and PVAAS to analyze data
• Used curriculum created formal assessments
• Formative Assessments: Questioning, observations, and whole class response activities
