FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT-1 8TH CLASS PHYSICAL SCIENCE(EM)
FA1 8TH CLASS PS-MODEL PAPER-EM
Formative
assessment can be interpreted as assessment for learning and assessment as
learning which are distinct from summative assessment of learning. There are four tools in formative
assessment.
1) Read
and Reflect
2) Written
works
3) Project
works
4) Slip
test
Each tool
carries 5 marks.
1. Read and Reflect
Reading is
one of the major inputs for language development. If we do not go for some kind
of focused interventions to facilitate reading skills, students will be reading
their textbooks only. (Earlier, it so happened that students did not read even
the text books, but depended upon question banks).There should be a mechanism
to ensure that students are reading materials other than textbook, develop
their own perceptions on such materials and come out with their own reflections
on the reading experience both orally and in writing.
How to
facilitate reading:
• The teacher is suggested to
provide reading materials such as library books, magazines, articles, stories,
newspapers etc. for a formative period (there are four formatives in an
academic year).
• The learners should read the
reading materials and write their reflections in their notebook.
• They will also be asked to present
their reading experience orally (without looking at the notebook) before the
class.
Oral
indicators:
We may use
indicators such as, stating the context, sequencing of ideas, well-formed
sentences, proper articulation for assessing the oral performance. The teacher
should check the written notes of the children and award marks for individual
writing based on the indicators related to writing which are included the
academic standards.
Written
indicators:
We can go
for a few manageable indicators such as: states the context, sequencing of
ideas, well-formed sentences, personal opinions, punctuation and spelling. The
length of writing should be at least 100-120
words
(10-12 sentences)
• Both oral and written performance
carry 5 marks each.
• The average marks should be
consolidated to 5 marks.
• Don’t discourage the learners if
they commit any errors in their writing. However, positive feedback may be
given.
The child
has to read the different discourses for every Formative Assessment. The
teacher can provide the source for
reading material or encourage the children to search the material on their own.
2. Written
Works
The
written works include the discourses written individually as part of classroom
process, the answers to the analytical questions assigned to the learners as
home task, the textual exercises such as vocabulary, grammar and study skills.
Teachers have to ensure that children are writing individually and not by
copying from others. TS,
3. Project
Work
Every unit
contains a project work to be carried out by the students; every student should
carry out one project for one formative. No need to carry out all the projects
given in the textbook. If
There are
three projects given in the textbook for a formative, teacher is to write the
titles of these on the blackboard and
ask the students select one among these.
Projects
help the students to evolve themselves as independent users of language.
Project work provides a platform for integrating language skills and various
study skills; it also involves higher order thinking skills.
The
learners have to explore the theme by collecting data, consolidating it using
different formats, write reports on them and make presentations in the whole
class.
There is
space for individual work, pair work and also group work. In addition to the projects
suggested in the textbook teachers can go more projects related to the themes
that are dealt with.
Process
Projects
take place in various stages such as:
• Brainstorming on the nature of the
project,
• Designing tools for the collection
of data,
• Collecting the data,
• Consolidating the data using
different formats,
• Analysis and Interpretation of the data,
• Report writing,
• Presentation.
Awarding
marks
The
project carries 7 marks for the written work (preparation of tools 2;
collection of data and analysis-2, report writing-3) and 3 marks for
presentation of the report. Consider the indicators (written and oral)
holistically and award total marks accordingly. No need to award item wise
marks in the project.
Note: out
of ‘4’ projects, one project should be group project.Teacher

4. Slip
Tests
Slip test
is more or less similar to summative assessment but it is still different in
terms of the following:
● There is no prior notice for
conducting the slip test.
● It is done in a limited time (say,
in a regular period of about 40 minutes).
● There are only limited numbers of
tasks.
● The discourses that have been done
in the formative period are considered for slip test.
There is no printed
question paper. The teacher can write the tasks on a chart and display it or
write the questions on the BB.
