    Introduction

    I am teaching an 11th grade American History class. This month we will be learning

    more about the American Revolution. We will be looking at the period of time leading up tothe American War for Independence. A period in which many of the grips colonists had with

    the crown came to light. Specifically we will start with the British passing the Stamp Act and

    the other colonial laws that would spark discontent with in the colonies. We will then follow

    the evolving disagreement to the brink of war ending just before Lexington and Concord and

    the proverbial shot heard round the world.

    This month the focus of instruction will be to enable the students to see from the

    viewpoints of both the Patriots and the Loyalists and to understand the complexities of the

    disagreements the colonists had with the crown. Also another instructional goal is to promote

    the students ability to present information orally. The students will also have to be able to

    display knowledge of how geography affected the relationship between the 13 colonies and the

    Crown. An instructional goal will be for the students to understand the difference between the

    British system of government and the changes that the colonists were proposing. The students

    will also be able to relay key ideologies, actors and events that lead to the American Revolution

    after instruction. These key some of these key facts are the stamp act, the type of colonial

    relationship the 13 colonies had to England and the Empire, Important Patriots and important

    Loyalist and Government officials of the English Crown.

    There are multiple goals to the assessments that coincide with this month of instruction.Much of the assessment goals are tied to the instructional goals. One of my assessment goals is

    that students will be able to identify key terms taught in instruction and connect them to their

    definitions. Another assessment goal is that the students will be able to explain in depth the

    effects British law had on the people living within the colonies. Another assessment goal is that

    students will be able to convey a complex idea by speaking, and also respond to other students

    complex ideas in a civil and productive manor. Also I want the students to be able to work well

    together in groups. Another goal of my assessments is that the students will be able to

    accurately pick out important information out of given readings. Also a goal of my assessments

    will be to identify if students are able to differentiate between information taught in theclassroom and information from the readings from similar but incorrect information on tests.

    Also I want students to be able to read sources other than their textbook and be able to

    understand them. Also through assessment I hope to enable students to better express

    themselves through writing as well as speaking.

    The content standards for my course are the common core standards for social studies.

    The standards that apply to my course on American history are standard one, the history of the

    United States and New York State which measures whether a student can use a variety of

    intellectual skills to demonstrate their understanding of major ideas, eras, themes,

    developments, and turning points in the history of the United States and New York. Standardthree, geography which measures whether a student can use a variety of intellectual skills to

    demonstrate their understanding of the geography of the interdependent world in which we

    livelocal, national, and globalincluding the distribution of people, places, and environments

    over the Earths surface. Standard four economics, which measures whether a student can use

    a variety of intellectual skills to demonstrate their understanding of how the United States and

    other societies develop economic systems and associated institutions to allocate scarce

    resources, how major decision-making units function in the U.S. and other national economies,

    and how an economy solves the scarcity problem through market and nonmarket mechanisms.

    Standard five civics, citizenship and government which measures whether a student can use a

    variety of intellectual skills to demonstrate their understanding of the necessity for establishing

    governments; the governmental system of the U.S. and other nations; the U.S. Constitution; the

    basic civic values of American constitutional democracy; and the roles, rights, and

    responsibilities of citizenship, including avenues of participation. Each of these standards has

    multiple subcategories within the standard.

    Grading Policy

    My class will be based on a percentage scale each type of assessment is worth a certain percent

    of the overall grade for the course. The percentages are as follows

    Participation 15%

    Participation entails a students activity in class discussion, attendance, preaddress for class, and

    amount of disciplinary action taking in regards to the students behavior.

    Homework 15%

    Homework consists of material that will be assigned one class period and due back the next day.

    The most common homework assignment will be to define vocabulary words, take notes on readings

    and bring said notes to class, and to come to class with one question based on the readings that were

    assigned. These are not the only homework assignments that will be given but are the most common.

    Tests 25%

    Test will consist of both multiple choice and short answer question. For test students will be

    given one whole class period to complete the test. The test will be given at the end of a unit and will

    test only material on the last unit; except for the midterm and final which will be cumulative cover all

    material up to the point of the test.

    Papers/Projects 15%

    Papers and Projects will be given sporadically throughout the year. These assignments will be

    given at the start of a unit and will be due at the end. When a paper or project is assigned the students

    will be given both a sheet detailing what they are expected to do for the assignment and a grading rubric

    that shows how they will be assessed.

    Debates/presentations 25%

    Debates and presentations will be given throughout the year. Students will be assigned

    positions on issues and then given time to research and create an argument. Students will be given both

    a rubric on how they will be grade and a positionality sheet that will tell them the view point they stand

    for and some helpful background information.

    Quizzes 5%

    Quizzes will be given at the beginning of class before the start of instruction and may be

    announced or unannounced. These quizzes will be based on the readings from the night before.

    If students wish to calculate their grades at the end of the month the way they would do so is as follows

    They will take their grade they received in each section and multiple the percentage of the

    overall by that number for example a possible months grade could be as follows

  • 7/30/2019 EDU-5130 Assessment plan

    6/28

    6

    100% on quizzes would be 1*5=5%

    85% on the debate would be .85*25=21.25%

    If there were no papers or projects for that month than the students will receive all of the points

    for that section 15%

    80% on the test would be .8*25=20%

    100% on homework would be 1*15=15%

    90% on participation would be .9*15=13.5%

    So this students grade would be 5+21.25+15+20+15+13.5=89.75% which would be this student grade

    for the month.

    The policy for late work will be a deduction of 10% off of the grade for each day it is late. Which

    means that late work can be turned in up to 9 days late after which point it is given a zero. The latepolicy may be amended if circumstances warrant it such as prolonged illness but in order to have the

    late plenty removed the student must email the professor prior to the due date of the assignment and

    must include the reason for not being able to hand in the assignment on time. As the teacher I reserve

    the sole right to decide if a assignment may be turned in late without a penalty.

    An example of such a penalty would be if a homework that was handed in one day late if it

    would have originally gotten an 82% it would now get a 72% a reduction of 10%.

    Any work that is handed in by student is assumed to be their own original work unless otherwise

    cited. This means that if a student is found to have cheated on an assignment or an assessment that

    they will be given a zero for the assignment and may be referred to the administration for further

    information depending on the severity or if the student is a repeat offender.

    Weekly Assessment Plan

    Week 1

    Instructional goals

    We have been previously studying the English colonies in North America, their formation and growth.

    This week we will be moving to the conflict these colonies have with the British Empire and the reasons

    and events behind this growing dissent. The instructional goals for this week are that the students have

    an understanding of the important vocabulary related to the chapter and that they are beginning to the

    differences in view points between the loyalists and the patriots.

    Monday

    I will begin with a small quiz to test the students prior knowledge of the subject to see if there are any

    gaps in their knowledge and if so where. Also this class will be spent making sure the information form

    the pervious test is still active in the students minds. For homework the students will be assigned

    reading in the text book in which they will have to define terms and bring in the terms for class the next

    day.

    Tuesday

    Today class will begin with a checking of the homework to see that it is done. Then going over the terms

    so that the students make sure that they have the correct definitions of the terms. Then class will begin

    by covering material giving special attention to material that Mondays quiz indicated that the students

    did not have pervious knowledge of. Homework for tonight will be to continue reading in the chapter in

    the text book.

    Wednesday

    Today in the class I will go over the reading and begin to separate out information between the views

    points of the loyalists and the patriots. For homework each student will be asked to write a short

    paragraph explaining the difference between the view point of the loyalists and the patriots on one of

    the British laws passed after the French and Indian War. Also for homework the students will continue

    to read the chapter in the textbook. A debate will be assigned for the following Friday the debate will

    place students on different sides some representing the British some representing the colonist.

    Thursday

    Class will start with a discussion based on the homework form the night before about the laws the

    English Crown had placed upon the colonies. After which we will begin to cover information pertaining

    to the important people of the time, which will help the students with the debate they have been

    assigned.

    Friday

    The students will continue to learn about the time period leading up to Lexington and Concord. For

    home work the students will have more reading in their textbook and will also have to draft an opening

    statement for the side that they have been given for the debate. This opening statement will be graded

    based on it being completed, being on subject and being at least three sentences in length.

    Week one

    Assessment linkages

    Mondays

    (formative)- This assessment was a pre unit assessment to gage the students understanding of the time

    period I am about to teach. This assessment provides useful information about what areas the students

    do not already have a strong base of information in so that I can focus on those areas to better serve the

    class as a whole. This item is purely for instructional use and will not be graded.

    Tuesday

    (summative)- This homework was a vocabulary sheet on which the names and other important terms

    were written so that students had to find the definitions with in the text. This assignment corresponds

    with my instructional goal for the week that the students become knowledgeable about the major

    events and important people during this time period. This assignment was used as a precursor to the

    learning of the important people and events so that during instruction the students would understand

    when a person was referred to and also during instruction students would have a moment if when a

    person was mentioned that they saw their definition was wrong they could change it.

    Wednesday

    (formative) The students will have read pages in the text for class and as the teacher I will engage the

    students throughout the day speaking to them and asking them questions about the reading to see in a

    formative way if the information they were reading was taking hold.

    Thursday

    (summative) The students will have written a short paragraph about the differences about between

    the colonists and the British. This assignment is in line with my instructional goal that the students

    connect the vocabulary for the chapter with ideas that the people hold. This assignment also allows me

    as the teacher to see if the vocabulary for the chapter is being used correctly in an assignment.

    Friday no assessments

    Week 2

    Instructional goals

    This week the students will continue to learn new information relating to the time period. The focus will

    be that the students begin to place the important people within the frame work of the period

    recognizing their ideas. Part of understanding the important people will be to use the vocabulary

    learned last week correctly. This will culminate in the debate at the end of the week on Friday.

    Monday

    Class will begin by discussing the opening statements that the students had to write for homework. This

    discussion will lead to one on what side important figures would be on. For homework the students will

    continue to read in the textbook.

    Tuesday

    In class we will continue to discuss the events leading up to Lexington and Concord. For home work the

    students will continue to read in the textbook and will also begin to work on a guide sheet for the

    upcoming debate.

    Wednesday

    In class we will continue to go over material form the textbook, placing information into categories of

    helping the British cause and helping the colonists cause. For homework the students will draft a one

    page help sheet they will be able to use during their debate on Friday.

    Thursday

    Class will begin with the students dividing up based on which side of the debate they have been given.

    After the class is divided the groups will begin to go over the information they have put down on their

    guide sheets from the night before. I will be going around the classroom looking at the guide sheets and

    assessing the students progress as they are making in deciding on some important points for the

    debate. Homework is to finalize your individual guide sheet and prepare for the debate tomorrow.

    Friday

    In class today the students will debate the issues surrounding the colonist discontent regarding British

    law.

    Week two

    Assessment linkages

    Monday

    (summative) This assignment of creating an opening statement for the debate works to join both last

    weeks lessons and the lessons for this week. It does so by having the students use the vocabulary from

    the first week and formulate a possible position that might be held by a person in the time period. This

    assignment also preps the students for the upcoming debate.

    Tuesday

    (Formative) I will ask the students questions throughout the class period in order to gain a window into

    what material the students are comprehending. This informal formative assessment will enable me to

    see if the students are achieving the learning objects for the week and if I need to tailor Wednesdays

    lesson since it will be the last of the new material before the debate.

    Wednesday

    (Summative) This assessment of placing of information and people in categories relates directly to my

    lesson outcome to have students relate events and people who were a part of them. This allows the

    students to see how the actors affected the events and how their beliefs influenced their decisions. This

    assessment will show the students level of comprehension of the topics that have been taught over the

    past two weeks. This assessment will do this be displaying the students understanding of the

    vocabulary, what position people held and will test higher order thinking about why peoples view and

    theories made them choose the side they did.

    Thursday

    (Summative and Formative) This assignment of debate preparation links to multiple learning outcomes

    for this week and learning goals for my class and links to content standards for my subject. The weekly

    learning outcomes that this assignment links to is the understanding of the key players in pre Revolution

    America and puts the students in their minds so that they can create solid arguments. This assessment

    also relates to the learning goal for my class that students work well with each other in productive

    groups. The content standards that this assignment reflects are standard two and standard five. The

    way in which this assignment is also a formative assessment is that the students are not being graded on

    the quality of their arguments at this point so I am able to go around the classroom helping the students

    formulate ideas at the same time seeing if students are ready for the debate the next day and helping

    those who are struggling so that they feel more comfortable going into the debate.

    Friday

    (Summative) This performance based assessment of a debate relates to this weeks lesson objectives in

    multiple ways. This assessment involves students speaking with and to their peers which is an objective

  • 7/30/2019 EDU-5130 Assessment plan

    11/28

    11

    I have for the course and it also involves higher level thinking about the recently learned information by

    taking historical figures viewpoints and changing them so that they could present them. This

    assessment relates directly to multiple assignments prior to it such as the guide sheet and the creation

    of the opening statements. Also this assessment links with the content standard five since the students

    are learning about the founding beliefs behind the American system of government and at the same

    time comparing them to the British system at the time.

    Week three

    Instructional goals

    The instructional goals for this week are to move forward with the content area. Students at the end of

    week should be able to identify important acts passed by the British and the retaliation that the colonist

    responded with and whether these reactions were exemplars of the entire populous of the colonies.

    Monday

    Todays class will focus on the position of Britain so that the laws that Britain passes have more context

    than just their effect on the colonies. This will be done with lecture and some class conversation.

    Homework will be to continua reading in the text book.

    Tuesday

    This class will focus on the actual laws and acts that were passed by the British and what the effects

    were by the letter of the law. This will be done by examining the textbook and looking at alternative

    sources to find out what the laws said when they were written. Homework for tonight will be to predict

    the specific reactions that the colonist will have to the specific laws.

    Wednesday

    Todays class will begin with a homework check whether the students completed the homework. Then

    the class will look at what the reactions of the colonists were. The students will break up in pairs to talk

    about how their predictions varied or were similar to the colonists actual reactions. Home work will be

    to bring in the notes and material from Mondays class so that the reaction of the colonists can be

    compared to what the laws actually said and what the British interpreted the laws as.

    Thursday

    This class will be spent comparing the British interpretations of the laws with the colonists

    interpretations of the laws. This interpretation will be done with a Venn diagram with colonist

    perspective on one side and British perspectives on the other. Students will see similarities between the

    interpretations and the differences and will better understand why there were issues surrounding the

    laws.

    Friday

    Todays class will involve reviewing the past information and expanding the Venn diagram from

    Thursday. Once this is done the students will have time to start a 300 word essay that will be due on

    Monday describing the main differences between the colonists view point and the British view points

    and the reasons behind these differences.

    Week Three

    Assessment linkage

    Monday no assessments

    Tuesday

    (Summative) Students will be judged on their participation today by whether they can finish analyzing

    the Law that they are given and I will do this by having the students write a small sentence summing up

    their article that is handed in at the end of the period. This assessment links with my weekly goal of

    familiarizing the students with the laws that the British had passed and what these laws stated and their

    intent. This assessment links to my goal for the month by allowing the students to show that they can

    analyze sources other than the textbook.

    Wednesday

    (Summative and formative) There are multiple assessments for Wednesday. The first assessment is a

    homework check to see if the students were able to predict the colonist reactions to the British laws.

    This assessment relates to my learning goals this week because it enables me to see if the students are

    able to understand what the laws are effecting colonists and also to see if they understand how the

    colonist respond to the laws. The second assessment this class period is a formative assessment that I

    will conduct as I go around the classroom observing the class work in pairs to see if the class is

    understanding the material and how they are interacting with each other.

    Thursday

    (Formative) This class the assessment is a formative assessment that the entire class is involved in.

    Calling on the students to fill out the Venn diagram I will be able to find out if the students are beginning

    to comprehend the information. This Venn diagram is linked to my weekly learning objectives because

    it enables me to see if the students are understanding the differences between the British and colonists

    perspectives.

    Friday

    (Formative) This class the assessment is a formative assessment that the entire class is involved in.

    Calling on the students to fill out the Venn diagram I will be able to find out if the students are beginning

    to comprehend the information. This Venn diagram is linked to my weekly learning objectives because

    it enables me to see if the students are understanding the differences between the British and colonistsperspectives.

    Instructional goals

    The instructional goals for this week are to have the students understand the reactions of the colonist to

    the British laws. Also an instructional goal is that the students become familiar with the material and to

    put the different weeks information together and prepare for the test on Friday that ends the section of

    material.

    Monday

    The students will hand in the 300 word essay for grading. Then I will start a lecture on the response of

    the colonists to the British laws. For homework they will have to continue reading in the textbook.

    Tuesday

    This class will be focused on finishing up the material for the section of the textbook. This class period

    will look heavily at colonial reaction such as the Boston tea party.

    Wednesday

    Today the focus of class will be to join the all of the concepts that have been taught throughout the

    section. Homework will be to assemble at least two questions they have to bring to the review session

    tomorrow.

    Thursday

    Today class will be focused on review for the upcoming test. The students will be able to ask the

    questions that they made for homework plus I will ask them some other question to make sure that theyare prepared for the test.

    Monday

    (summative) This 300 word paper will evaluate the kind of information the students took away from the

    past week of instruction. This paper links to my instructional goal for the week by setting the ground

    work for the actions of the colonists by explaining the differences between the British and colonists

    views. Also this paper allows me as a teacher to see if the students writing abilities are improving. Also

    No assessments

    Thursday

    (formative) The students will have created two questions that they do not know so that they can be

    gone over as a class. This will enable me to address any last minute issues that students are having.

    Also having student come with pre made questions will make the review session more productive.

    Friday

    (Summative) This class period will be entirely devoted to the multiple choice test covering the material

    taught over the past month. This test reflects many of my learning and instructional objectives. One

    such objective is that the students know the major event, the important people, and the important

    dates. This specific information is easily answerable on a multiple choice test. Also the test will assess

    whether students were able to connect ideas together and if they understand the geographical

    impactions of Britain being across the ocean, and seeing the Americas as a colony.

    Week Two Friday Debate

    Name__________

    You have been assigned a position Loyalist or patriot. Your objective is to try to inhabit the mind of your

    give side and create a convincing argument that would persuade an undecided person choose your

    position over your opponents. The key points on which you will be graded are the correct use of

    vocabulary words, comprehension of your view point and that of the opponents displayed by your

    talking points and rebuttals towards the opponent and most importantly if you speak at least twice

    during the debate. As the professor I will moderate the debate so each side will deliver an opening

    argument and then have a chance to engage the opponent going back and forth. Interrupting another

    while they are speaking or demining someone during the debate will both result in a loss of points on

    your grade for the debate.
