Assessment for Learning in Action
It was a real privilegeĀ to observe a Year 7 English lesson, taught by Miss Denton, Advanced Lead Teacher for English.
The lesson was focused on War Poetry and the students were introduced to the poem ‘The Manhunt’ by Simon Armitage. Miss Denton utilised mini whiteboards within the lesson as an Assessment for Learning tool to check the whole class understanding of the technical vocabulary learnt in previous lessons.
It was great to see the engagementĀ of all the students throughout the lesson and how much they had learned and could apply.
