The Best Quiz You'll Ever Give [S2 E54]
The episode you’ve all been waiting for is here….
It’s time for SESAME STREET!
This episode breaks down the philosophy behind using our Sesame Street quiz formative assessments as a regular practice in your classroom. We love that these quiz check of many important boxes for us in terms of what matters in the classroom:
They promote equity: this is a show me what you can do type of assessment, not a “gotcha” quiz
They are rigorous, but can also be scaffolded
They can be graded on a rubric rather than using arbitrary points
They help kids understand that you care more about holistic interpretations of learning rather than minute details (unless the details provide commentary on the whole!)
Our students in Curriculum Rehab are always talking about the ways that they’re trying these quizzes in their classes and we have to show you the utter joy here in our private Facebook group in a little sneak peek:
We’d love to send you a copy of the slide deck to help you get started with Sesame Street in your own classes, so be sure to grab it below AND register for our upcoming Masterclass: DOWN WITH THE READING QUIZ!
