The Impact- How we know what has been learnt

Assessment in Discovery RE is both formative and summative. Clear over-arching learning objectives and the key- coloured boxes within the planning allow the teacher to be mindful of the assessment elements within that step that can formatively help them pitch and plan subsequent lessons, and also the content which can contribute to the overall summative assessment completed in Step 3 and when the unit is completed.
 
The three colour-coded aspects are:
Green: personal resonance with or reflection on the subject content in relation to the enquiry question.
Blue: knowledge and understanding of the subject content in relation to the enquiry question
Red: evaluation/critical thinking in relation to the enquiry question.
 
The children have an opportunity to self-assess and to identify their own next steps using the “TINT” (To improve next time) box in the “My Learning Progress” sheets
