Have you used any of the 20+ Formative Assessment Lessons (FALs) (or Gates Math Modules) this year?
For which subjects did you implement a FAL?
Common “I likes…”
• Pre-Assessment • Guiding Questions
• Variety of Scaffolding Tasks• Student Analysis of sample work• Card activities and manipulatives
• Pushes the inquiry• Pre-assessment• Emphasis on questioning techniques• Emphasis on improving own work
• Provided a “break” for students to “swim” in pure mathematics for a while
• Provided a place for teachers to “take stock” of student learning
Working Together
• Discuss your solution to the Pre-Assessment with the 2-3 people around you.
======================================================
• Take turns to match and place cards.• When you match two cards:
• Place cards next to each other so that everyone can see.• Explain carefully how you came to your decision.
• Your partner should either explain that reasoning again in his or her own words, or challenge the reasons you gave.
• You both need to be able to agree on and explain the placement of every card.
• If you cannot find a card to match, then make one up yourself.

Explore time & Parking Lot
• Take a few minutes to locate and explore the FALs.
• Try to skim through ones in your content area.• Look for applicable collaborative activities that
you might be able to utilize in other content areas.
• If you have any questions, please place them on the parking lot.
