Description:
This book explains how formative assessment
– assessment which engages with and helps define the appropriate next steps
for the individual child – can be developed as an integral element of good
classroom practice. Shirley Clarke takes forward the core themes of
planning, sharing learning intentions, pupil self-evaluation, feedback and
target setting, introduced in her highly successful Targeting assessment
in the Primary Classroom, and sets them in the context of literacy,
numeracy and Curriculum 2000. She then focuses on the use of questioning as
a tool for effective teaching, ways of raising pupils’ self-esteem, and
whole-school frameworks for monitoring progress.
Each chapter distils
research findings and classroom practice, giving numerous examples,
strategies and practical solutions plus suggestions for school policies and
INSET based on Feedback from hundreds of teachers. Down to earth and
direct, the book shows how formative assessment complements formal,
summative assessment – and how it can bring a dramatic culture shift to
teaching and learning in your own classroom.
