I am confused. I read "What Works" and for the Written Commentary it refers me to the General Portfolio Instructions. The instructions state repeatedly "for each student you have chosen..." Ex. Using the same three student responses, jot down answers to the following questions for each student. Here the emphasis is on your interpretation of what you see.

I thought I was using my whole group for the entries and have been, with the exception of the 3 students self-assessments. Am I to use these same 3 self-assessment students as the focus for the written commentary? When is who group and when are 3 students used?

Thank you for helping.

allie But it does state to reference student work in the written commentary, right? So it would be ok to talk in general about the class and also reference examples from the F-assessments, correct?

Comp 4 is SO confusing! :/

mdstarks Yes, you will speak about the class in general, and be specific where the questions require it.
