Final Project Proposal

My assessment will cover several different tasks that will cover at least 2-3 learning targets within each task. The tasks will also be differentiation to meet the needs of my students, so that in order to perform the task students will use manipulatives such as pattern blocks, mirrors, color tiles, and geoblocks for the performance aspect. They will also have to answer questions using words, numbers, and pictures. The degree of which students will use pictures to demonstrate their answers will be structured because I will provide a 1 inch graphing grid - this is to ensure accuracy for their answers. The following is a rough sketch of the types of questions I will ask for the assessment. The assessement is also cumulative.

1. Group the bag of objects according to the number of sides, shape, and any other group you want. Using words, tell why the objects belong together.
   
2. Build a rectangle using 18 color tiles. Draw it on graph paper. Write a description of your rectangle below it.
3. Below is a rectangle that is made up of two colors. Is it a half-and-half rectangle? Why or why not? Use words, numbers, and pictures in your answer.
4. Given half of a shape using pattern blocks on a graphing grid, use a mirror and then draw the other half the shape. Describe the new shape using fractions and words.
5. Given the outline of a shape, students will use geoblocks to create a 3-D shape that fits within the length, width, and height of the given shape.
   
6. Find an object in the room or in the real-world that has mirror symmetry. Draw this object and draw its line of symmetry.
