Evidence of learning
The teacher uses students’ work samples (estimates and measures of capacity), anecdotal notes from observations, and checklists of indicators to determine whether students have made progress as a result of the learning experiences.
Work samples for Sam include completed worksheets of sentence stems/cloze sentences and task cards.
