Formative assessment is the process of checking in with students to get their feedback about their learning and understanding of a topic or opinions in order to guide instruction. A quick way to informally assess your students is by using Padlet. In this example, Ms. Bennett set up a Padlet wall for her 3rd graders and had them check in with a guiding question.
What's super cool is that Padlet now provides a QR code for students to snap and quickly go to a wall to add their questions, ideas, or comments. From that springboard of beautiful student feedback, you can quickly tailor your lesson based on what your students know, think or wonder.
