SDAIE Assessment

The following is an assessment I used with my whole class, but was designed for English learners. It is designed at the (i + 1) level, targetting the Early Advanced level of Cluster 7 which says, "Respond to messages by asking questions, challenging statements, or offering examples that affirm the message."

My cooperating teacher and I went up and down the rows in the classroom and called on each student to do the following:

We would read a statement involving a geometric question, logic, or solution from Unit 3 and any previous unit. The student being called on would have one of the following options:

1. Challenging the logic of the solution if we read a statement
2. Give an example if we presented logic
3. Answering the question if we asked a question
4. Asking a question if they did not know the information to complete the previous steps

We used this assessment to monitor the progress of student understanding.
