Assessment and Reflection
No Marking Required
This sequence is designed for light classroom evidence, not grading.
Teachers do not need to:

Teachers can collect simple evidence through two optional tools only.

Tool 2: Teacher Observation Checklist
Use this while circulating. It is intended as a quick classroom note, not a scoring sheet.
Observation checklist

When To Use These Tools
Use the student reflection sheet when you want one written sample for a portfolio or class discussion.
Use the teacher observation checklist when you want a fast in-the-moment record without stopping the flow of the lesson.
That is enough evidence for this sequence.
