July+15,+2013


 * Grading letter due today.**

Read chapters 9-11 in the Wormeli book. **__Respond to discussions by July 19__**.


 * __Final project: Due July 25__.**In the final project you will write a paper to answer the following question: How would you integrate assessment, testing, and grading to develop a comprehensive assessment plan? Explain how the components of your plan meet the needs of students, parents, teachers, and administrators. I realize this is a challenging paper to write. Think about the ways in which assessment supports learning, how learning is demonstrated through testing, and how grades reflect degrees of mastery (student learning). You are required to have a minimum of 5 references. Two of the references may be Davies and Wormeli. I do expect you to present a quality essay representing your synthesis of assessment, testing, and grading.
