To do this work thoughtfully, teachers need a collection of assessment techniques that will integrate seamlessly into their everyday instructional practice. TOOLS FOR THOUGHTFUL ASSESSMENT is that collection. It contains over 75 easy-to-use tools that help teachers at all grade levels respond to the key challenges associated with classroom assessment.
