Publisher's Synopsis
The amount of assessment required of all teachers in the UK is often seen as a burden. This book is based on the view that assessment is part of the learning process and can motivate pupils. Although a statutory requirement, it can also reinforce and clarify learning. The book contains a number of practical ideas taken from classroom work with primary teachers, and from inservice training days. It should be of equal value to experienced and trainee teachers, and all those involved in assessment.
