How do I evaluate and monitor student
work?
Learning Centres provide a perfect environment for authentic assessment
since the classroom is alive with learning, activity, and opportunities
for individual or group assessment. Evaluation is vital to programming
- knowing where students are coming from will enable you to plan where
they are going. Centre time provides the teacher with an opportunity to
monitor student work and conference with students. Observe all relevant
data for each student and look for patterns of behavior and evidence of
student growth.
