Backward Design Stage 2

Here is my PowerPoint with narration that explains why I picked the performance tasks for stage 2. 

ELA Reading

Stage 2- Assessment Evidence 

Performance Tasks:

Draw It!- Given a line from the story, students will have to draw a picture that relates to the line that is given to them. Teacher will then compare the picture the student drew to the actual picture in the book. For example, the teacher is reading the Three Little Pigs. The teacher reads the line that says, “.....”. The students will draw. To determine whether or not the students understand the goal, the picture has to have similarities to the picture that was given in the book. 

Story Cube- Students will roll a cube that has a picture of the character/ picture of the setting from the story. Depending on what character or picture from the setting is on the cube the students will have to describe the character or setting. For example, the student rolls the cube and a picture of the straw house is rolled. The students will describe what it is and how it relates to the story. If the student says the first pig built this house and then the wolf blew it down it shows that the student understood the text based on the picture. 

Other Evidence: 

Story ball- A ball will be passed around that has essential questions related to the book (essential questions from stage 1). If answered correctly, students show understanding.

Wanted Poster- Student will draw the character in the book that is considered the villain. For example, in the Three Little Pigs the villain is the Big Bad Wolf. 

ELA Writing 

Stage 2- Assessment Evidence 

Performance Tasks: 

Create a book- Students will have to create a 3 page illustration book. Students will have to draw what happens in the beginning, middle and end.

Sequencing Match- Students will be given cards with pictures on it from the story. Will have to put the cards in sequential order. 

Other Evidence: 

Prompts- Describe what happened in the beginning, middle and end.
