Post: New to GATE need writing sample ideas
I have been put into the Interventions job at my school.
So I mainly work with & schedule the approaching kids for
help in reading & math. But as in so many other schools, I
am also in charge of trying to implement our GT program. I
am attempting to put together a testing/evaluating system
at our school that I can accomplish in between organizing &
teaching the intervention classes. One assessment
measurement that is on our plan is writing samples. Are
there specific kinds of writing samples programs generally
use to evaluate students' abilities?
I need to create or find this type of thing for grades 3-6.
We are going to try to focus our efforts on science topics
in order to supplement some of what is lacking in class due
to the NCLB focus on improving reading & math scores. Any
help you can give will be greatly appreciated.
