• Exit tickets 
• Homework- reading comprehension
• Quizzes/end of lesson/unit exams
• student-driven inquiry 
• I-Ready technological assessments. Each student has there individual learning plan based on reading, writing, and math. Work is generated and students must be on their Chromebooks for 30 minutes each day during the week. Student progress is monitored by the teacher, parents, and students. The I-Ready program can be utilized at home with the students'- school led google account. When gains are made, students are pleased and receive incentives for time spent in I-Ready.  When a student shows no improvements in a particular area or unit, the program redistributes leveled work.
