The faculty and the principal at Presley Elementary School agreed that assessment of students would be a high priority for the school year. In a group discussion with other faculty, a second grade teacher stated "I really don't worry about whether or not students are achieving the objectives of each lesson I teach – it's the state social studies standards that I am concerned about." Why should
this teacher re-think his perspective?
? a. The teacher is correct in that student achievement of standards should be any teacher's ultimate concern, but there is little chance his students will meet the standards if he doesn't check to see what students have learned
b. His state's social studies standards are too numerous and too wordy
c. He shouldn't; he is correct
d. He really should have modified his position. If he said that he would assess student learning on 50% of his lessons, he would be correct.
