Love or hate them, assessments for every student is a necessity every term.
One of the toughest, yet most rewarding, tasks to do in a very busy classroom, is doing assessments of all students' learning. Tough, because I have to find the time in each day to test for each students whenever I can. And rewarding because you see the learning growth of each students after your teaching and their hard work.
I especially love seeing the look on some students faces when I tell them that they have gone up a level and the totally satisfying feeling is when the students retain what you have been teaching them all term coming to fruition.
We test each student one-on-one at least once per term for reading and maths, and as a whole class for writing. We also get to see the strategies students use with maths and the ways they decode when the are reading.
One thing is for sure though - every single student is unique and they all learn at their own pace and time.
