ASSESSMENT
(HOW MR. STAV GETS HIS MARKS)

THINGS PARENTS CARE ABOUT:

Mr. Stav utilizes the 4 step
GUIDED MATH technique.

Step 1: 

Mr. Stav will teach a formal lesson to the class

 

Step 2: 

Each student will complete 5 intentional centres

  • Math Journal - Students complete a procedural writing piece explaining how to do that curriculum expectation.

  • Math Game - Mr. Stav has created custom games for each expectation that help students practice simpler "knowledge & understanding" questions. 

  • *Guided* - Mr. Stav will give his undivided attention to 4-5 students at a time. Helping them better understand the expectation and strategies needed to be successful. Every student will get a chance to sit with Mr. Stav

  • Independent Work - Students will complete a practice worksheet that features higher level questions. These types of questions will be seen on the quizzes, and on EQAO in grade 9.

  • Tech - Students will interact with the expectation online in an intentional and  fun game or activity 

​

Step 3: 

Students will have a period to decide to re-try a centre, complete unfinished work, or sit with Mr. Stav to ask any questions that have come up during any of their centres in preparation for the quiz.

​

Step 4: 

Students will demonstrate their understanding on a short quiz

Mr. Stav gathers 4 marks for each expectation:

​

1. Math Journal: 

- Students will follow a rubric to demonstrate a higher level of proficiency

- They will use complete sentences

- They will use the keywords from our lesson (featured on our math wall in class)

-  They will use an example

 

2. Guided Table: 

- Mr. Stav will observationally get to see how each student is understanding the concept

​​

3. Independent Work: 

- This is a simple completion mark.

- Students must complete the entire 2 sided handout

- Students must check their answers online before handing it in. Answers are online at MrStav.ca/math

​

4. Quiz/ Exit Ticket: 

- Students will complete a short quiz that specifically targets the curriculum expectation.

- This quiz can be re-taken once a student has completed their math journal and independent work and has attended a "Math-Help Session" with Mr. Stav outside of classroom time.
