Evaluation of Unit I will evaluate my performance in this unit via student engagement in writing exercises and discussion. I will evaluate my students performance in the unit by their response to videos and readings, the ideas expressed in the reading responses and other writings, class participation, and their performance within their poems. I will also evaluate this unit, this course, and the students performance during individual conferences.
