2. Imagine that you are an English teacher for a Grade 5 class. You have just finished teaching a unit on verb tenses, specifically focusing on the simple past, present, and
future tenses. Your students have learned to identify and use these tenses in their writing. Craft at least 5 items for a traditional formative assessment that you will give to
your students at the end of the lesson.
At the end of the lesson on verb tenses, I would create a formative assessment to evaluate my students’ understanding of simple past, present, and future tenses. The assessment
would begin with a multiple-choice question where students are asked to identify the tense of a given sentence, such as “She will visit her grandmother next weekend,” with choices
like past, present, future, and past perfect. Next, I would ask my students to transform a sentence from the present tense into the simple past to further assess their understanding,
and then I would provide a fill-in-the-blank exercise where students need to choose the correct verb tense. For instance, “Yesterday, they ________ (go) to the park” this would
require them to use the past tense of “go.” Another task would involve having students to identify and underline verbs in sentences, then label each verb as past, present, or future.
An example sentence might be “He will bring snacks to the party,” and students would highlight “will bring” and classify it as future tense. Lastly, I would ask students to write a short
paragraph that includes sentences in all three tenses: past, present, and future. They would describe something they did last weekend (past), something they do every day (present),
and something they plan to do next week (future). This set of activities will provide a comprehensive check of their ability to use and transform verb tenses in context.
