Final Project Unit- Assessment

Touch Math: Numbers 0-9

Dylan Doggett

Objectives for Unit

•  Students will be able to identify numbers 0-9 •  Students will be able to use 1:1 correspondence to identify numbers 0-9

General Outline •  6 weeks, 5 days each week, 30-40 minutes •  Day 5 is typically a “formal” assessment •  Paraprofessionals assist with re-teaching •  Most teaching is done 1 on 1

Daily Routine •  Introduced to new skill •  Complete worksheet with para •  Complete activity with teacher or para •  Complete independent work •  Reward time J

Examples of activities:

Types of Assessments: •  Matching •  Demonstration/Performance •  Multiple Choice •  Teacher Observations/Checklist

Matching

Reasoning: assessing the important aspects of the unit, fewer than 10 responses, used perfect matching to avoid confusion.

Demonstration/Performance Students will demonstrate counting by counting the touch points on each number, counting the doubles in the correct order.

Reasoning: linked very closely to teaching activities, requiring students to demonstrate skill, task is realistic, and it is adapted for non-verbal students.

Multiple Choice

Reasoning: direct questioning, includes fine motor work, only one correct answer, and it is engaging/motivating.

Teacher Observation/Checklist

Forms of Voice/Communication

Feedback

•  Students will receive positive praise –  You did a great job____! High Five! J

•  Corrective Feedback and redirection •  Rewards: Tokens!

Grading

•  Students earn a +/- •  If the objective applies to IEP goals then goal of 80% accuracy is figured based on progress

Goal My goal for my students is to have a foundational understanding of numbers 0-9 so that they can learn other functional life skills that involve the use of numbers.
