 * K:** //Draw the light butterflies in the number bond. Then, draw the dark butterflies. Show what happens when you put the butterflies together.//


 * 1st Grade:** //Find the mystery numbers. Use the arrow way to explain how you know.//


 * 2nd Grade:** //Complete each missing part describing each array.//


 * 3rd Grade:** //Find the area of each of the figures.//


 * 4th Grade:** //Solve using an array and an area model.//


 * 5th Grade:** //Write the number on a place value chart. Then, write it in expanded form using fractions or decimals to express the decimal place value units.//

^ 56 Examples of Formative Assessment by David Wees, Formative Assessment Specialist for New Visions for Public Schools || **Tasks for the** ** Analyzing Student Learning—Whole Class Section** (1.) Identify the specific learning objectives measured by the formative assessment you chose for analysis.

(2.) Provide a graphic (chart or table) or narrative that summarizes student learning for the whole class. Be sure to summarize student learning for all evaluation criteria. > (a.) Data Collection Table to help you analyze whole class patterns >> (i.) Example #1, Example #2 > > > (b.) Create a Graph

(3.) Using examples from the chart, discuss the patterns of learning across the whole class relative to: Conceptual Understanding, __Procedural Fluency__, __Mathematical Reasoning__
