05+Assessment

Post resources related to assessment on this page. Include your name and a brief description of your material(s). This is an activity I created to assess how students were understanding and applying plot points and characterization from this novel. We took a break from reading homework to work on this. I gave them two days in class to complete this activity and I also had them present their final product as a practice for senior project. This could be modified to fit any novel or longer short story.
 * Lauren Curley: //The Catcher in the Rye// Music Soundtrack Assignment**

This is an assessment my CT and I created for my Catcher in the Rye unit. Students know that every class they are to come in and get started on these Learning Logs. I have found that it helps them track motifs and symbols, connect it to the themes we've been studying and then finally, they are able to better understand what they represent based on when and where they appear in the novel. I also like reading the reflections. It helps students who may feel that they have no connection to the character or plots, make a personal connection.
