Assessment and Evaluation


The main purpose of Assessment is to IMPROVE learning, not just to assign a grade to it. Research proves that feedback from self, peers, and teachers is the most important thing to get better at anything. You will be assessed and evaluated in Grade 7 English based on a Triangulation of Assessment. This means that your 'mark' is a combination of these three things:

To create excellent quality work we will be using tools such as:

  1. Learning Targets - Goals that remind us what we're aiming for.
  2. Success Criteria Checklists - Lists that remind us what quality work looks like.
  3. Rubrics - Charts that remind us what makes something of higher quality than another.
  4. The Achievement Chart - A breakdown of achievement into
  • Knowledge (What form is it?)
  • Thinking (What are my ideas?)
  • Communication (How do I say it?)
  • Application (How do I connect it to self, text, and world?)
