Assessment Directions:

This assessment is administered in Unit 3, Lesson 8

1. Display the Science Talk Groups chart and point out that group A will begin with the Science Talk and group B will begin with the puppets.

2. Transition students to their respective workspaces.

3. Invite group A students to sit facing their pre-determined Science Talk group members in the whole group area.

5. Lead students in group A through the Unit 3 Assessment:

  • Remind students that they will use the Science Talk protocol to discuss the question: “How does my bird’s body help it survive?”
  • Review the Science Talk Protocol anchor chart and the Classroom Discussion Norms anchor chart as necessary.
  • Display the Science Talk sentence starters and briefly review them.
  • Remind students that as they engage in the Science Talk protocol, they should use one of the sentence frames to add on or to build on what another group member might have said.
  • Also remind students as they talk that they should show the pictures from their Expert Birds Research notebook. This will help the members of their group better understand what they are describing. They should also be sure to share the information that they selected and marked with a sticky note during yesterday’s lesson.
  • Invite students to begin discussing how their expert bird uses its body to survive.
  • As students discuss, circulate to track assessment information on the Speaking and Listening Checklist.
