Math Number Sense and Numeration Unit Quiz #1 Assessment sent home.

First math unit (number sense and numeration) quiz will be sent home on Monday 24th.

Please go over the quiz with your child and use the evaluation rubric for which area of achievement s/he should work more on. As homework, students were asked to correct their mistakes or add more with a colour pencil.

You will notice that there is no points given to each question. Their work is assessed more holistically in four different areas of achievement (Knowledge and Understanding / Thinking / Communication / Application) using an assessment rubric following the ministry guidelines.

Some mistake are circled. If there is no circles but they achieved lower than it seems, some possible reasons are:
a. They did not use math vocabulary learned in class to explain their thinking.
b. They showed only one aspect of the number pattern.
c. Their explanation is not clear.

Here are some tips to better understand the evaluation rubric (la grille d'évaluation). Click on the image to view it bigger.

If you have any questions about this assessment, please feel free to send me a message or give me a call at Ext. 127. I will be happy to further explain how this assessment was done.

Please note that Level 3 means students are meeting the Ministry expectations.

Thank you.
