Self Assessment

To self assess our fluency skills, students worked with a partner within their reader's theater group. One ipad had the script. The second ipad video recorded the readers. Then students viewed their work during Reader's Theater. They looked at three lenses: 1.) using time wisely: starting immediately, following directions; 2.) listening: eyes are following along during other parts, facial expressions are reacting to the story; 3.) fluency: pausing at punctuation marks and changing pace (from Unit 1) according to what is happening in the text. We practiced recording over two days. Our goal was to self assess our learning on the second day.

 

It can be uncomfortable to watch yourself and see yourself from a different perspective. Students used a Google Form to share their thinking with Ms. Leom. Their self reflection and assessment, reflects their learning and grade for the reading fluency: pausing at punctuation goal.
