Benchmark – Literature Assessment Plan

Elementary teachers frequently develop and implement unit plans designed to enhance students’ learning in English language arts. Successful unit plans consider a broad range of needs, including literacy skills, standards, text selections, students’ unique learning abilities and backgrounds, and sound instructional strategies and assessments.

In this course, you have created three lesson plans that together comprise the basis for a unit on the literature you selected.

For this assignment, create a 500-750 word assessment plan for your unit that includes formative and summative assessments, as well as technology and differentiation.

Include the following in your plan:

  • Describe formative assessment strategies that would be used in each of the lessons you created to gauge student understanding and inform instructional planning.
  • Create a summative assessment activity for the unit that helps students apply their developing ELA skills of reading, writing, speaking, viewing, listening, and thinking to many different situations, materials, and ideas.
  • Discuss the use of digital tools in assessments to promote effective communication, collaboration, and support interactions to meet diverse learning needs.
  • Describe how the formative and summative assessments can be differentiated to meet the diverse learning needs.
  • How effective assessment practices guide students toward their individual learning goals.

In addition, write a 250-500 word reflection on the process of creating a literature unit and explaining how you plan to use research on teaching, professional ethics, and resources available for professional learning to improve student learning in your future professional practice. Cite the “COE Professional Dispositions of Learners,” and the “Model Code of Ethics for Educators” as appropriate.

Support your findings with 2-3 scholarly resources. 

 

Benchmark information:This benchmark assignment assesses the following programmatic competencies:BS Elementary Education2.1: Incorporate English language arts concepts on reading, language, and child development to design, deliver, and evaluate instruction on reading, writing, speaking, viewing, listening, and thinking skills, and to help students successfully apply their developing skills to many different situations, materials, and ideas. [ACEI 2.1; InTASC 4(b), 4(d); GCU Mission Critical 1, 2] 5.1: Reflect on practice in light of research on teaching, professional ethics, and resources available for professional learning in order to improve student learning.

UMUC Biology 102 / 103 Lab 6: Taxonomy ANSWER KEY

This contains 100% correct material for UMUC Biology 103 LAB06. However, this is an Answer Key, which means, you should put it in your own words. Here is a sample for the Pre lab questions answered:

Pre-Lab Questions

 

1. Use the following classifications to determine which organism is least related out of the three. Explain your rationale. (1 pts)

 

 

The Eastern Newt is the least related organism out of the three. While all three are classified into the same domain, kingdom, phylum and class the Eastern Newt is in a different order than the American Green Tree Frog and the European Fire-Bellied Toad.

 

2. How has DNA sequencing affected the science of classifying organisms? (1 pts)

DNA sequencing has allowed for the comparison of genes at the molecular level as opposed to physical traits at the organism level. Physical traits can be misleading when classifying how related two organisms are. DNA sequencing can also trace relatedness through generations and more accurately assess how closely related two organisms are.

 

3. You are on vacation and see an organism that you do not recognize. Discuss what possible steps you can take to classify it. (1 pts)

The organism’s physical features can be used to compare it to known organisms. Some physiological features can even possibly be used to help classify it.

 

The rest of the questions in the lab are answered as well:

Data Tables and Post-Lab Assessment

Table 3: Dichotomous Key Results

Organism

Binomial Name

i  

Selasphorus platycercus

ii  

Mus musculus

iii  

Vaccinium oxycoccos

iv  

Ramphastos vitellinus

v

Quercus abla

vi  

Evathlus smithi

vii  

Helix aspersa

viii  

Taeniopygia guttata

ix  

Lonicera japonica

xi  

Oryctes nasicornis

xii  

Taeniopyga guttata

xiii  

Musa acuminata

 

Seems like x was omitted, which would have been Carduelis tristis.

 

Post-Lab Questions

1.    What do you notice about the options of each step as they go from number one up?

 

 

2.    How does your answer from Question 1 relate to the Linnaean classification system?

Post-Lab Questions

1.    Did this series of questions correctly organize each organism? Why or why not?

 

 

2.    What additional questions would you ask to further categorize the items within the kingdoms (Hint: think about other organisms in the kingdom and what makes them different than the examples used here)?

 

 

 

3.    What questions would you have asked instead of the ones that you answered about when classifying the organisms?
