This assignment is for you to collect and analyze some examples of assessments that are relative to your area of expertise or upcoming teaching position.  For this task, you are to collect electronic copies of at least five assessments used by another teacher at your grade level/subject area or the grade level you hope to teach.  Ideally you will collect these from teachers directly; however, you can find good assessments online as well.

Once you’ve collected these five or more assessments, write a 2-3 page essay about the assessments’ strengths and weaknesses.  (The essay should include the strengths and weaknesses of each of the five assessments.  You do not have to write 2-3 pages per assessment; it should be collective.)  Would your collection represent a good array of assessments for a given marking period?  Why or why not?  Your assessments and essay need to be submitted as one file.
