Review "A great resource for assessment with so many ready-to-use resources! So helpful for working in our teacher-based-team meetings to plan ways to keep students actively assessing without boring them with tests. The variety of assessments help to take the redundancy of testing out of the classroom and the focus back to learning." ―Jessica Bennett, 8th Grade Language Arts Teacher, Brookpark Middle School, OH About the Author Kate Wolfe Maxlow is Professional Learning Coordinator at Hampton City Schools in Hampton, Virginia, USA.
