Reflections

The floor hockey psychomotor assessment in Outcome 5.1 demonstrates my ability to create assessments that align with the lesson and unit goals and objectives. The assessment aligns with the lesson objectives as it focuses on the students’ wrist and snap shots along with how often they recognize the opportunity to use the give and go in a game situation.

The floor hockey cognitive assessment in Outcome 5.2 demonstrates my ability to create formal assessments. This assessment aligns with the goals of the entire unit as it incorporates all of the content learned throughout.

The artifact in Outcome 5.3 artifact demonstrates my ability to reflect and critique my performance after the lesson. This artifact contains 4 reflections that follow instruction and provide evidence to indicate change. It shows my use of the reflective cycle to change teacher performance, aid student learning, and create goals for improvement. The reflections are listed sequentially, so the goals set in the preceding reflection will be measured in the following data collection.
