ASSESSMENT: Literacy instruction is effective when students can self-assess and view past work with current work to see their progress (CTW, 2016). This pin demonstrates an effective way for students to self-assess as the students write a new piece each month which is attached to their latest work. Students end with a writing yearbook, and they can flip through the pages to see their writing growth throughout the year, including what they learned, improved on, and could still work on.
