Pre-assessment
Outline the steps you will
take to evaluate
students prior
knowledge.
Students will be given
a few objects with
different textures to
explore (i.e. apple,
pine cone, sandpaper,
play dough, ice cube,
etc.). One object at a
time, I will ask each
child how it feels. (i.e.
Does this apple feel
hard or soft? Does this
pinecone feel spiky or
smooth? Does this
sandpaper feel smooth
or rough? Does this
play dough feel hard
or squishy? Does this
ice cube feel hot or
cold?) I will use a
checklist to record
their answers.
Apple: Hard/Soft

also pair up with a
buddy.
How can I provide an opportunity to remediate, reinforce, or expand on students
learning today in class?
