The document provides examples of formative assessment activities and notes assessment evidence can come from observations, conversations, and student products. The purpose of assessment is to understand what students have learned and still need to learn in order to improve instruction.
Educational Leadership November 2011 GradingAndrea Hnatiuk
The passage discusses the importance of summarization in an age of information overload.

The Good Spirit School Division employs three full-time Literacy Coaches - Andrea Hnatiuk, Janine Neufeld-Ruetz, and Nicole Piercey. The Coaches provide a variety of support roles to teachers including assisting with curriculum implementation, improving classroom instruction, aligning instruction with student data, and expanding teachers' resource knowledge. They work collaboratively with teachers at designated schools to help achieve the division's literacy goals and ensure student growth in reading comprehension.
Students engage in writing as a process that involves pre-writing, drafting, revising, and finalizing. During pre-writing, students generate ideas and develop initial plans by considering purpose, audience, point of view, and format. In drafting, students focus on content over mechanics as they compose rough versions. Through revising, students refine their writing by reorganizing ideas, adding or removing content, and providing feedback to peers. Finally, students produce polished drafts and decide whether to share or publish their work. The writing process is recursive, and teachers support students by modeling strategies, creating a collaborative environment, and maintaining resources to facilitate writing development.
The document discusses the 6+1 Traits model for writing assessment and instruction. The 6+1 Traits include ideas, organization, word choice, sentence fluency, conventions, presentation, and voice. Using this common language and framework, teachers can provide specific feedback to help students improve their writing. The traits are divided into revision traits like ideas and organization, and editing/publishing traits like conventions. Teachers should embed the traits into teaching the full writing process from the beginning stages of developing content to the final stages of editing.
