Title of Artifact: Assessment Example

Date: December 12, 2023

Focus: Demonstrating formative assessment done in practicum

Applicable TQS Competency(ies):

3c.2) generate evidence of student learning to inform teaching practice through a balance of

formative and summative assessment experiences;

3c.3) provide a variety of methods through which students can demonstrate their achievement

of the learning outcomes;

3c.5) support the use of reasoned judgment about the evidence used to determine and report

the level of student learning.

This artifact is about:

Demonstrating one method of formative assessment that I used in my PSI practicum this fall.

This assessment was done in regard to both a printing and phonics chek-in.

I chose to include this artifact because:

This artifact showcases student learning and growth through continual practice in using this

method. It gives students opportunities to practice different skills while still being connected to

the same topic of study. I chose this artifact because I wanted to show the growth that my
students showed from week to week, as well as some areas to work on for both myself in

teaching these lessons, and my students in their practicing and understanding, which are both

present here.

From this artifact I learned:

I learned more about formative assessment and what to be looking for when I teach the lessons

that accompany these assessments. I learned more about what I can do better in my teaching to

promote student growth and understanding. I learned that just because I taught my students

something once, does not mean that they automatically understand it perfectly. This is

demonstrated in the artifact via the spelling of “friend” being wrong in two students writing for

two different weeks.

The way(s) in which I grew or changed as a teacher as a result of the artifact is/are:

I became more aware of what I can do to help my students work on their phonics sounds and

accompanying words. I grew as a teacher because I recognized that in some of these instances, I

was not reviewing the concepts enough with my students. I grew as a teacher because even

though both students had misspelled “friend” both weeks, they learned the correct way to spell

“fridge” and the “-dge” phonics focus was only present in one of these weeks pictured. Even

though my students struggled with another concept we learned, they were still understanding

other concepts we covered in these check-ins.
