Today’s Learning Targets
1. I understand the five keys to quality assessment and can apply them to units of study in my classroom.
2. I have a clear understanding of the commitment for this work for this year including meeting dates, expectations, and my role as a facilitator.
3. I understand the process for setting up my team for success and I can plan meetings to help support their learning.
4. I understand that part of this process is building relationships within and across districts for the purpose of deepening my knowledge of assessment literacy and building my own support network.
5. I can continue my own learning and develop new or revise existing units of study using the CASL process.

Introduction and Welcome
Networking• Move around the room and network with teachers about
Assessment Literacy.
Chalk Talk• Using a sticky note, answer the questions on the posters. This
should be done silently. Feel free to comment on other sticky notes– How are you making grades work in your classroom/gradebook?– How are you keeping track of the data you collect? How do you
use it?– How do you continue to transition your units and reflect this
transition in your gradebook?– How do you make it work for final student grades?– What skills are necessary to be a leader of change?– How did your last meeting go?
