Assessment

• STATE LOCATION ASSESSMENT Each student will
  receive a map of the United States of America
  with all the states numbered from one to fifty.
  The student will be responsible for matching the
  correct geographical state with the correct name.
  Depending on your student's knowledge of
  spelling skills, I recommend also giving them a
  list of all the 50 United States. The same test
  will be given at the beginning and end of the
  game. Growth will be determined by the
  improvement in growth between the first test and
  the second test. The goal is for all students to
  be able to match 35 of the 50 state names with
  the geographical location. The base line is 70
  for the tests.CAPITAL/STATE MATCHING
  ASSESSMENT In the second  assessment, the
  student will have to match the capital with the
  correct state. See  states and capitals. The
  student must match the state with the correct
  capital.  The student may use a list with the
  names of the capitals to help them with recall of
  capitals and spelling.  I will follow the same
  procedures as the state location assessment
  criteria  Students will be given the same test
  in the beginning and end.. Growth will be
  determined by the improvement in growth between
  the first test and the second test. The goal is
  for all students to be able to match 35 capitals
  with their corresponding state.. The base line
  will be 70 for both tests.
• FINAL PROJECT POWERPOINT PRESENTATION Students
  will be assessed by a check off list of
  requirements for their PowerPoint Presentation.
