Soup, I feel you could certainly use a performance based summative assessment if you feel it would be appropriate for THESE students, at THIS time, in THIS setting.

Can you use the same contextual form for Component 3 that you used for Component 2 if nothing has changed?

That is a good question. What Works, can you help us out?

What Works To be sure...you're asking if you can cut and paste info from your C2 onto the Instructional Context Form for C3?

Although much info could be similar or even the same, I wouldn't cut and paste. Respond to each C3 prompt individually. That will ensure each response is accurate to that question.

EMC/Literacy: Reading Language Arts

by Cbarry7

Jan 15, 2017

If I teach in a self contained 3rd Grade but see students for reading groups can one of those groups be one that I choose to focus on for C4? I am confused about the wording for the group profiling. It says: if you teach a whole class you must feature you entire class. If you work with a number of students who share similar characteristics but you ...See More

Emily That's a good question. I hadn't thought about it that way. I assumed if you were self contained you had to reflect on all groups?

What Works So to clarify, you have a self-contained, "homeroom" class, but you're "departmentalized" or switch groups for reading...is that what you mean? You teach multiple reading/LA groups? if that's the case, I believe you could use one of those classes as your Profile Group. if what I've paraphrased isn't accurate, come again for clar...See More

Comp 4 EMC PE

by Soup

Jan 31, 2017

For component 4 I am thinking about creating a profile on a group of 4th-6th grade students in a special needs class that I teach as an Adapted PE class. My question is about the summative assessment--can the assessment be performance of a skill or activity? For example, some of the major needs for these students include improving bilateral coordin...See More
