I-B: Assessment

1. Purposeful Assessment: Uses a variety of formal and informal assessments for specific instructional purposes, including to:

   • Understand each student's strengths and areas for growth.

   • Measure and monitor students' understanding throughout instruction and their progress toward grade-level standards and/or individual learning goals.

   • Actively inform instructional decisions.

2. Accessible Assessment: Implements assessments that are accessible to all students by:

   • Providing multiple ways and opportunities to students to demonstrate their learning.

   • Creating opportunities for students to be able to draw from their cultural and linguistic knowledge and lived experiences.

   • Ensuring that assessment tasks, methods and instruments maintain the rigor and high expectations outlined in the grade-level standards and do not perpetuate racial, cultural, or linguistic bias.
