Near the end of term two, we needed to complete running records, and spelling tests on all the students in Mahi Tahi. Collectively we decided to test the students in our own groups, rather than in our class homerooms.  This decision was based on the fact that we A) knew the students expected from our groups, and B) that this was how we planned to write our class reports.   This involved the testing for my students, as well as loading them on the databoard and Edge. Testing was to be both a summative test for report writing, and to let us see what students had/had not improved on, as well as a formative test to allow us to see where we needed to make adjustments in groupings and teaching so that we could plan for the following term.
