Summary+and+Reflection

When reviewing the pictures and rubrics I saw many students who need help in letter writing and sentence writing. Some of the writing issues are due to fine gross motor skills. Most students showed a good understanding of correct classroom behavior and could distinguish between good and bad behavior in a classroom. Some had trouble with the picture, but could write about the behavior. While others can do just the opposite and illustrate correct behavior but was weak in the written part.

This assessment shows developmentally appropriate elements of handwriting which standardized testing does not show. It is hard for me to compare my assessments in other ways to standardized testing since first grade does not take standardized. However, I would guess both could show how the students can apply and infer information. I would also have to say that standardize testing does not allow for students to apply any creativity in assessments.
