6 Unit Assessment Plan
Assessment plan includes a pre-assessment to gauge student prior knowledge. Test is the same as
unit assessment. Test was a multiple choice test created by Core Knowledge as part of the unit
teaching plan. Pre-assessment was use to determine student prior knowledge of the subject
matter and was used to determine if I needed to make adjustments to teaching plan. Preassessment was used to determine learn and gain scores. This is the first time these students had
taken a pre-test. They expressed that the test was hard and how were they supposes to know
answers before that had learned information the information. I explain that a pre-test is used to
determine what they know now so I can know what to teach them. It is also used to show how
much knowledge they have gained. The pre-assessment test showed that student did not know
very much about the events surrounding the War of 1812. I asked those students who got some
answers correct how they knew answers and their response was that they had guessed. The
median score for the pre-assessment was 30-40%, the low score was 0%, and the high score
60%. One student scored 0%, 3 students scored 10%, 4 students scored 20%, 3 students scored
30%, four students scored 40%, five students scored 50%, and two students scored 60%. Overall
results of the pre-assessment revealed that only 9% of students passed the pre-assessment test
indicating that content knowledge level was very low.
The post assessment test was the same as the pre-assessment. I was a three page multiple choice
questionnaire. The median score for the post assessments was 80%, the low score was 20%, and
the high score 60%. One student scored 20%, one student scored 40%, one student scored 50%, 2
students scored 60%, four students scored 70%, three students scored 80%, three students scored
90%, and seven students scored 100%. The majority of students verbally expressed that the final
test was easy. Overall results of the pre-assessment revealed that 86% of students passed the post
assessment test; with 45% achieving a score of 90% or greater indicating that content knowledge
level was high. Only one student received a lower score on his (AP) post assessment test. I have
discussed this student (AP) with my host teacher and we agree that AP has some kind of
undiagnosed learning disability and probably should have been retained in first grade. I have
discussed AP more in the analysis section of this report
Unit assessment test, formative assessment test, and answer key located on pages 9-13.
This chart shows the learn and gain scores for the pre-assessment and post assessment.

13 Analysis
The pre-assessment test reveals that students in this 2nd grade class had little to no prior
knowledge about the War of 1812. The unit lesson was designed by Core Knowledge to be a
direct instruction lesson. My goal for this unit was to enhance this script lesson by incorporating
more visual content by showing the students a 1812 DVD at lunch time to reinforce content
14 material, to substitute 1812 content material for McCall Crabbs stories that are usually used to
teach comprehension and fluency, to use 1812 content material for Daily Oral Language
activities, and to use 1812 content material for handwriting activities. I read aloud informative
narrative stories to students daily to increase love of literacy and expose them to historically
accurate information about events occurring during the time period around 1812. I had the
students color informational coloring pages to increase fine motor skills and expose them to
information. The student did two hands on art projects; create a 15 star flag and an American
map, to give them a visual experience to increase knowledge and comprehension. In addition to
the two art project the students did in class; I coordinated with the art teacher who had the
student create 1812 pictures depicting ships.
Three Students’s Learning: AP, JC, SJ
AP is a very nice boy and compliant student. He is the seventh child in a family with eight
children to a single parent. Five of his siblings are enrolled at KCS; of those five students two
have IEPs, one is very bright, and two receive intervention services. He receives little to no
support from home and often does not turn in his homework. AP is a struggling student. He is
frequently pulled out for tutoring for math and reading. He has a difficult time writing. His
writing is almost illegible. AP often received individualized attention from both my host teacher
and me. He sits at the front of the classroom where he can see and hear best. AP need frequent
prompting. AP writes slowly and has a hard time tracking, it is for this reason I give him a hard
copy of assignments written on the board or overhead. I also give him extra time to complete
assignments. During direct instruction he is easily distracted and is often off task. Something I
have come to learn about him is that he processes information slowly and has limited
comprehension skills. When I did one on one review with him he openly stated he doesn’t
understand information. My host teacher and I have had extensive talks our concerns about AP.
We both feel he should have been retained in 1st grade to give him time to reinforce his skills.
My host teacher would like to retain him in 2nd grade but AP’s mother does not want him
retained because his younger sister would be in the class. It is our belief that AP has some type of
undiagnosed learning disability. AP engaged in and completed all of the activities included in the
War of 1812 lessons but unfortunately failed to retain any of the information. AP scored a 30%
on the pre-assessment and 20% on the post assessment.
JC is a very nice boy of average to high intelligence. He is very social and likes to talk a lot in
class. Because of his talking he sometime misses important content material information. JC is
the oldest child in a two family household. He has 5 year old sister. JC lives with his biological
mother and father. His father is very supportive of his education and assist JC is always making
sure his homework is done. JC was excited to learn about the War of 1812. He really likes
information about wars and guns. He can tell you a lot about WWII. JC reads at about a 5th
grade level and his math skill are at grade level. As I expected JC did very well on all of the unit
assignments. He wrote some amazing entries in his journal. JC scored a 50% on his preassessment and 100% on his post assessment. JC is a highly motivated student. In the future, I
would recommend JC be given an independent project to be complete on the subject material
being studied. He has the reading and writing skills that would allow him to be successful in
completing an independent project.
15 SJ is a likable young man, who is often a problem in the class. He very social, talks a lot in class,
often argues with the teacher refusing to take ownership for his behavior. SJ is and intelligent
and is capable of being a straight A student if he wanted to be. In an attempt to modify SJ
behavior chosen to focus on his positive attributes. I praising his good behavior, I have made him
my helper whenever possible, and I have paired him with another student. I asked him if he
would help the other student stay on task and model good behavior for this student. This strategy
seems to work. I have also explained to SJ that his excessive noise making in class disrupts my
teaching and the other students learning. I have also learned not to engage with SJ when he
misbehaves, instead I give him a hand signal or I stand by him to stop behavior. SJ seemed to
enjoy the War of 1812 lesson and completed all tasks. His test results show he gained the most
from the unit lesson. SJ scored 0% on the pre-assessment and 100% on the post assessment. SJ
seems to easily comprehend and learn information. He reads and writes above grade level. Now
that SJ has his behavior problems under control; I would recommend that SJ be given the
opportunity to do an independent study project for the information being studied. I have come to
learn that SJ behavior problem stem from a desire for attention and a need to be challenged.
Lesson Reflection
I believe this to be a successful lesson. The learn and gain scores indicate that the class as a
whole had an average gain of 45%. The pre-assessment test indicated that student knew very
little about the War of 1812 and this guided me in my teaching. The post assessment indicated
that the majority of students learned the unit goals. I believe that presenting the information in a
tri-fold, hearing-seeing-doing, manner was a successful approaching. Presenting information
from a direct instruction was a good way to introduce information to students. Information was
then reinforced through writing and hands activities. DVD showing information on the War of
1812 was highly entertaining and very informative. It visually reinforced information students
were learning. I was careful to check for student understanding daily to monitor learning. In the
future I would add a few things thing to the unit lesson. I would allow more time for independent
reading and writing. I would require student to do more reflective writing. I would offer the
opportunity for students to do independent study projects. I would include a diorama project in
the lesson activities. I would offer the opportunity for struggling students to take the preassessment, formative assessment, and post assessment orally. This unit lesson was an
introduction to the War of 1812 student will learn more about the subject matter in the 5th grade.
