Formative Assessment - Individual Instruction

What is the "Formative assessment" instructional strategy?

With "Formative Assessment", the teacher regularly assesses student performance related to expectations.  The key is to assess throughout instruction, either in the form of a formal test or informal observation of student performance during practice, as a means of planning for future instruction.  This ensures that instruction is delivered at a level that is appropriate for facilitating success.

What are the "Individual Instruction" context videos?

The Individual Instruction videos include both group and 1:1 instructional settings, but the focus is on the application of the entire range of Primary Level strategies with individual students.  The videos represent a cross section of instructional focus, student ages, and student abilities.

The following is a list of all of the Primary Level training videos  involving the "Formative Assessment" instructional strategy within an Individual Instruction context that are available for viewing.
