Customer Reviews

Absolutely fabulous book!

Bonnie Campbell Hill and Cynthia Ruptik have done it once again! This book is filled with wonderful rubrics, both primary and intermediate, explanations for parents and teachers, and a wealth of authentic assessment ideas. I would highly recommend people spending the money on this valuable book and CD rom. I look forward to the next three books in the series.

Making Classroom Based Assessments Manageable

Classroom Based Assessments is the first book of a four-part series that uses the image of a puzzle to conceptualize assessments and their uses. If you've bought assessment books before and always found the ideas were good but not something that you could regularly implement in the classroom, then this is a book that will pleasantly surprise you. It addresses the use of a variety of assessments for all content areas. Of special interest is its focus on using assessments that inform your instruction, are practical and manageable. Following each chapter, you'll find a section on Professional Growth and Recommended Readings. The authors recognize the many teachers who assisted in the creation of the many forms included - roughly one-third of the book has blackline masters of the various assessment forms. Lastly, the book comes with a CD-ROM that has all of the assessment forms in PC and Macintosh platforms as well as in the Acrobat Reader ".pdf" format. The other three books in the "Corner Pieces Series" are Developmental Continuums, Student Portfolios, and Reporting Student Growth. If the other three books are anything like the first, Classroom Based Assessments, then they'll definately be worth reading!
