Throughout the unit, use both informal and formal methods for checking student understanding. Questioning occurs throughout the unit to probe student thinking and allow student reflection. Anecdotal notes and observations assist in keeping track of individual student needs while students explore the concepts of the unit. Have students check work with their group members. Use exit passes and journals to encourage self-reflection and provide useful feedback. While students work in groups, use the collaboration observation sheet to provide feedback to individual students regarding their efforts and assess collaboration. The project rubric is used by student groups to self-asses their presentations and posters before teacher assessment. The same rubric is used by the teacher at the end of the unit to assess the presentation and poster. Students respond to the Essential Question in their writing journals in conclusion of the project and make comparisons to what they wrote at the beginning of the unit.
