What to do with Formative Assessment
Formative assessment leads to differentiation, allowing teachers to better meet the needs of each learner in the class and informs instructional next steps.
Stations
Students can also be their own very effective formative assessment tool when given the opportunity to "take their own temperature."
Consider this differentiated scenario of using stations after students determine their own learning goal based on their individual level of understanding.

Strategy Groups
Working one on one through conferring is the most authentic way to assess student progress for formative assessment to drive further instruction. Then strategy groups are formed as the result of the formative assessment. Strategy groups are based on similar needs of groups of students in order to reteach or clarify.

RECORD KEEPING SOLUTIONS
In order to formatively monitor student proficiency with specific skills, this assessment form example provides a method for recording how well students are doing. It is one component to creating a "photo album" as opposed to a "snapshot" of students' progress using both qualitative and quantitative measures.
