Science Assessment: KS1
Authors: Peter Riley
Synopsis: Offering assessment
resources to assist and support teachers in observing, analyzing and
documenting children's acheivement, this book's two main functions are
diagnostic - assessment for the purpose of planning instruction for
individual needs, and celebratory - documenting a pupil's progress and
strengths. It has been designed to reflect the investigative and
knowledge-based aspects of science, for example, offering activities to
practise the interpretation skills which are so important to
investigation, and which now feature in SATs. The book contains a
progression of activities which systematically address all the Science
PoS, and indicates the range of outcomes possible for the activities.
The chapters include activities to reflect the unique content of the
Scottish Guidelines and the Northern Ireland Curriculum, such as the
emphasis on environmental science, but are organized overall on the
basis of the National Curriculum into: experimental and investigative
science; life and living processes; materials and their properties; and
physical processes.
