Mr. Chisnell wonders how one makes sense of nonsense. Is Lewis Carroll merely having fun or is there method to his machinations?

    Highlights from Royal Oak Schools MYP Assessment Policy

    In our Middle Years Programme, meaningful assessment of learning answers the questions:
    • --What do we want to learn?
    • --How will we know if we've learned?
    • --What will we do if we haven't learned?

    Purposes of assessment:

    • --Support and encourage learning and progress toward meeting district goals, IB/MYP criteria and certificate, and state of Michigan Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for graduation and college/career readiness.
    • --Provide feedback to students, parents, and teachers on student progress in learning
    • --Promote critical and higher-order thinking skills, deep and authentic understanding of content, inquiry into real-world contexts, and positive attitudes toward lifelong learning.
    • --Reflect international-mindedness
    • --Support development of the whole student

    Methods of Assessment:

    ELA9 will use formative (practice), summative (mastery of standards), and common assessments (across all classrooms). Assessments may include, but are not limited to:

     
    • --Projects, Presentations, and Performances (both live and/or incorporating digital media)
    • --Essays, Compositions, Lab Reports
    • --Portfolios,Process Journals, Writers Notebooks
    • --Tests, Quizzes, Exams
    • --Group or Panel Discussions, Online Forums, Socratic Seminars
