This week on the podcast I had the honor of speaking with Katy Pointer. She's a lead elementary teacher who also teaches 5th-grade math. She is the queen of formative assessments and she had so much to share. We also brainstormed many issues that virtual teachers have with formative assessments from grading and validity. After listening to today's episode, head on over to our social media pages and share your thoughts, ideas, and suggestions for formative assessments.
