Once you have the
objectives selected, let the fun of the review begin. Keeping reading for some of my
favorite test time review activities.
Channel the testers: Instead of being passive
takers of the test, empower your students by having them create additional
questions to assess themselves and their classmates on that objective.
-Give the question
and have the students come up with possible ABCD answers. Discuss how someone
could come to an incorrect number or what mistakes they might make to get that
answer.
Tricky testers: Tell the students that the
testers always try to trick students with almost right answers to determine
which kids "know" the answer. Have students analyze the given answers
and decide how the tester was trying to trick them.
Analyze Data: Have students chart their
progress from the pre-post assessment. Ideally, this is something you have been
looking at all year, but many trackers could help students understanding of
their skill specific ability and help their sense of growth mindset.
Bottle Toss: This is a new addition to the
list! I love this idea from Erintegration.
It incorporates bottle tossing and correct answers.
This might be more
appropriate for older learners. It might great to make adaptations by having
students toss balls or bean bags to particular targets based on their answers.
