Assessment Plan

In the final week of class, we were asked to apply all of the concepts learned throughout the course to create an assessment plan which included a purpose, a learning objective, a context, any needed constraints and a rubric. I chose to continue with the first grade class learning addition and subtraction to create a cohesive example of my growth in this class.


Assessment Plan

Grade Level: 1st Grade

Lesson: Addition and Subtraction

Purpose: Teach students the how to apply the concepts of addition and subtraction to real world situations

Learning Objective: Students will apply learned concepts of addition and subtraction to the real world by “buying and selling” items in a class store with 80% accuracy.

Assessment Context:

                Supplies Needed:

                                1 Grade sheet per student (see attached)                           

$2.00 in fake money for the “customer”

                                $2.00 in fake change for the “cashier”

                                Note Cards with 3 of the 5 categories listed on them (1 for each student) (Grocery List)

                                10 store items with price tags (items should be plastic)

                                                Fruit: Apple ($0.91) and Banana ($0.16)

                                                Bread: Hotdog buns ($0.05) and Hamburger buns ($0.78)

                                                Vegetable: Broccoli ($0.50) and Carrot ($0.43)

                                                Snacks: Cupcake ($0.62) and Cookie ($0.27)

                                                Meat: Hamburger ($0.39) and Steak ($0.84)

                                Pencil and scrap paper for each student

               

Each student will select one set of items and complete one addition problem and one subtraction problem as the “customer” and one addition problem and one subtraction problem as the “cashier”.  

 

 

 

 

Instructions:

1.       Students will be paired up and tested 1 group at a time.

a.       Note: While students are not being tested, the teachers’ aide will engage the students in a non-math activity.

2.       The “customer” will be given a “Grocery List” and $2.00 in bills. The “cashier” will be given $2.00 in change.

3.       The “customer” will select one item from each category on their list totaling as close to $2.00 as possible without going over.

4.       The “customer” will use the pencil and scrap paper to add the cost of their items and figure out the change they should receive.

5.       The “customer” will then walk over to the teacher and present the three items. The “customer” will tell the teacher how much the items should cost and how much change they should receive

6.       The teacher will record which items the “customer” chose and their answers on their grade sheet.

7.       The teacher and the customer will then “pay” the “cashier”.

8.       The “cashier” will use their pencil and scrap paper to total the items and figure out the correct change.

9.       The “cashier” will tell the teacher how much the items cost and then give the “customer” the “change”

10.   The teacher will record the “cashier’s” total and change on their grade sheet.

11.   The students will then switch places and repeat steps 2-7

12.   The students will then join the other group and a new pair of students will be assessed.

Constraints:

1.       Each “customer” will be given 30 seconds to select the items and 30 seconds to add the items and 30 seconds to figure out the change

2.       Each “cashier” will be given 45 seconds to add the items and 45 seconds to give the change

3.       All students will be given pencil and paper to use as scrap paper to use during the assessment

Students will be graded according to the rubric.
