So often we are asked to assess our students for benchmarks and to meet administrative demands and requests, but then what? We don't always use the information we gather to make informed decisions about our students and the instruction they may need. Formative Assessment provides teachers with an opportunity to use student data to drive future instruction. How can formative instruction improve student performance? How can Formative Instruction fit into your classroom? I invite you to join me as we tackle these tough questions and more in my discussion about Formative Assessment in the classroom.
