Goal: more descripIve feedback J. Mercuri, MacKenzie Secondary
• Grade 10 socials students – first drai of essay • Explained the rubric to the grade 12 English students, then they used the rubric to highlight the anonymous essays
• Grade 12 students included with their feedback, 2 stars and a wish
• Grade 10 students used the feedback to revise their essay, then handed them in for marks
Goal: more awareness of what good readers do and of what fully meeIng
expectaIons looks like • Grade 7s did their PBA (DART) • Coded and set a class goal – reflecIon and self-‐regulaIon
• Taught grade 7’s how to use the grade 4 assessment protocol, how to do a running record, how to interview/conference
• Grade 7’s each conducted the assessment with a grade 4 student, coded them, chose a class goal and strategies to meet this
