What are Common Assessments?
Common Assessments are a tool used to measure student growth and learning in art room. Before each unit, students will be given a pre-test worksheet that will measure the students' knowledge on the subject matter. The pre-test is never graded and simply used as a benchmark. At the end of the unit, students will be given the exact same worksheet as a final assessment for what they have learned.
