This SCOOT Pre/Posttest answer document was born out of a desire to document student learning to show students the progress they were making. Some of them have NO IDEA how much they are learning and improving! I set out any set of task cards and have students write in their answers on the left had side. We then grade it together and graph the PRE side of the Pre/Post graph. At the conclusion of our unit, I fold the left side of the paper back few times to hide their previous answers, and then students take the SCOOT assessment again. They record their answers on the right side this time, we grade it, and then graph the new number correct. It's so exciting to watch students realize how much they've learned and improved their score!
A happy realization after the fact was that it would also work beautifully as evidence of learning and assessment for my teacher evaluation. (Nothing like the productive feeling of killing two birds with one stone!)
