Authentic Assessments

· One authentic assessment for math would be to play Jeopardy. On the board would be the Jeopardy game board. Each column would be a topic covered in second grade math. The class would be split into teams. To pick which team would go first do something simple like rock, paper, scissors, or whichever group was ready first, etc. The team who won would pick the category and number. For example, fractions for 300.

Fractions	Addition	Money
100	100	100
200	200	200
300	300	300
400	400	400
500	500	500

When the question underneath that value had been asked, the time would start. The teams would have fifteen seconds to solve the problem. Whichever team quietly raised their hand first would have a chance to give their answer. Remember the answer has to be given in question form. For example, what is 4? When a team answers a question correctly they get the value that was chosen. For example, fractions for 500, the team to get the answer correct would earn 500 points. When all questions have been answered, or you are out of time, the team with the most points wins.
