Describe the instructional activities that will occur prior to the SRS activity and how you will
introduce the SRS activity: Prior to the SRS activity, students will have engaged in three days instruction
on the parts of a plant, and their functions. During these three days of instruction students will have read
informational text, made diagrams and illustrations, and had meaningful discussions. I will introduce this
activity at the end of the last lesson after discussion.
Describe the purpose of the SRS activity (check all that apply):
Assess Prior Knowledge Anticipatory Set (Create Interest in a Topic) To Illuminate Common
Misconceptions Formative Assessment of Content Knowledge (for purposes of differentiation and
mastery for ALL students) Summative Assessment of Content Knowledge Test Preparation
Survey/Poll Discussion Starter Homework Collection Other
Additional explanation of purpose (optional):
Type of session: Teacher-Paced

Student-Paced

Identification of students:
Students will log-in so their individual scores will be available to you after the session
SRS activity will be anonymous
Briefly describe what will happen during the SRS activity: This activity will take about thirty minutes as
students will login to their computers, login to socrative, and begin taking the quiz. During the quiz the

Use of data: What data will be collected as a result of this activity? How will it be used and by whom?
(For example: Will information collected from this activity be used to award a grade? Will the individual
information collected be shared with students and/or parents to help them monitor individual progress?
Will you discuss the aggregate, anonymous data with the whole class to help them learn? Will you use data
to differentiate instruction for students, if so describe how.)
The data will be used to give the students a grade, and to assess their learning where they are at this point in
the school year with the material we have learned about plants. Results will be shared with parents to help
monitor progress and how well the student is studying at home. Differentiation will occur after the quiz as
