In the last post I shared this reflection
page from Seven Strategies of
Assessment for Learning by Jan Chappuis.
I thought I’d share a little bit about
stars and stairs. It’s a really simple idea
(from Jan Chappuis) but I think it seems like it has the potential to be really
effective. That’s why I introduced it to
my students to this concept Monday. (I went on an Assessment Training Institute
recently. Can you tell?)
This is the anchor chart I made while I
explained stars and stairs to my kids.
Today I used this while I graded
assessments. For example, one of my
students got a star for knowing why we need rules but stairs for understanding
majority rules. I just drew both the
star and the stairs and wrote the notes next to them.
Do you have any fun tricks for
encouraging learning?
