About Assessments:
Assessment is the engine that drives student learning! Frequent assessment and feedback are crucial for helping students learn. When assessment works best, it does the following:

• Provides diagnostic feedback
• Helps educators set standards
• Evaluates progress
• Relates to a student’s progress
• Motivates performance
• Helps teachers and students self-evaluate

Tip: Save trees and time! Make one class set of the tests and have students use a multiple choice answer sheet that can be scanned.

Happy Assessing!
