Nontraditional Forms of Assessment. Issue 3 (February 2015) - O'Neal, Brooke
The author discusses the benefits of nontraditional assessments and shares how she has used them in her 5th-grade classroom in rural South Carolina. The examples include doing a Gallery Walk, writing poetry, integrating the arts into other subjects, having students reenact historical scenes, using social media, and rewriting popular songs with lyrics that reflect course content.
