Modern Math Teacher- Teaching Strategies for High School and Middle School Math Teachers

143- Rethinking Assessment: What Finals Prep Can Teach Us About What (and How) We Measure


Listen Later

Finals week doesn’t have to be a panic button. In this episode, Kristen redefines assessment as feedback, not judgment—and shares five active teaching strategies that make review week engaging, equitable, and meaningful.

You’ll learn how to:
 
✅ Turn review into reasoning with the 3-Round Review
 ✅ Use an Error Hunt to target misconceptions
 ✅ Celebrate growth with a Final Show-and-Tell
 ✅ Run a Station Rotation for multiple representations
 ✅ Let students lead with a Teach-Back Tournament
 🤖 Plus: quick AI assists to generate problems, rubrics, and feedback — without extra prep.

💬 Challenge of the Week: Pick one of the five strategies, run it for your next review day, and reflect on what you learned about your students’ thinking.
