Formative Assessment Lesson Plan

By:

Victoria Vogel

Formative assessment The goal of formative assessment is to monitor

student learning to provide ongoing feedback that can be used by instructors to improve their teaching and by students to improve their learning. More specifically, formative assessments:

help students identify their strengths and weaknesses and target areas that need work

help faculty recognize where students are struggling and address problems immediately

What I think formative assessment is? What I have learned in this workshop.

Students will manipulate prior information Why do you suppose that all the ingredients

in our recipe today , Buffalo Chicken Dip, will work together so nicely?

How does a microwave work? When was the first microwave invented?

Bell ringer for today’s lesson

Microwave ovens are a modern convenience that many people may take for granted. This super-invention has taken cooking to a new level, allowing what typically takes 15 to 20 minutes to be done in just 30 seconds. Microwave ovens were invented in 1946 by Dr. Percy Spencer and became regulated by the FDA for safety in 1971, ensuring every household could enjoy this powerful invention without any adverse affects on their personal health.

Discussion of our feedback from our prior knowledge, data collected

Most foods contain water, so Dr. Spencer invented a form of cooking that takes advantage of water's reactivity. When you turn on a microwave, the oven begins releasing a radiation wavelength that is customized to water. When the water molecules in the food are hit with the waves, they begin moving around and bumping into each other. The friction caused by the water molecules heats the remaining food molecules, resulting in a complete cooking reaction.

What does a microwave do to food? Recall of prior knowledge, data collected

Simply put, anything that is still alive, such as pets and other animals, should never be put in a microwave oven, or you will kill it. Additionally, breast milk should never be microwaved because the wavelengths will kill the living antibody cells found in the milk. The milk may be heated and taste fine to the baby, but it will not have the usual health advantages of breast milk. Finally, fresh vegetables should never be placed in a microwave without adding water to them. This is because the existing water in their cells will leave the cells, resulting in a very rigid vegetable instead of a softly steamed edible plant.

Do not put this in the microwave,prior knowledge, investigation lab, used u-tube

Microwaves are sent out by the unit's magnetron tube. A magnetron tube is a 2450 MHz producing diode-type electron tube that draws energy from your electrical outlet and converts it into the required frequencies. Magnetrons are made up of an anode (plate), filament (heater), antenna (loop) and magnets (magnetic field producers). The magnets are spun inside the magnetron and the field produced is focused into the cavity of the microwave oven

How do the waves work? Prior knowledge, use knowledge, analysis, retrieval

Microwave ovens are completely safe. The frequency that microwaves operate at is within the non-ionizing spectrum of radiation. However, the frequencies in a microwave oven do produce a thermal effect that can cause damage to living tissue if exposed for too long at a high enough frequency. Some effects on the human body that have been reported in studies include cataracts and possible links to cancer. To avoid any exposure, stand at least 1 foot away from the microwave while it is operating.

Are we safe around microwaves?prior knowledge, data storage

Our goal today, evidence we will collect and discuss, information

Questionnaire to be filled out/ take out blank paper and copy: ( higher order questions) do the students understand the lesson? What do you notice about Frank’s Hot sauce,

compared to other sauces we have used? How does this dip compare to the other dips we

have made in lab? What did you see, taste, and feel when eating the

Buffalo Chicken Dip today? Did the microwave preform as you expected? What do you notice about cooking in glass dish

ware?

Lab time

Buffalo Chicken Dip Prep, cook chicken in skillet as discussed,

season to your liking, pulled apart Caution: salmonella In glass dish microwave: cooked chicken,

cream cheese, ranch dressing, Frank’s hot sauce, cheddar cheese

Microwave: cover dish, 5 minutes, rotate dish

Microwave : cover ,5 minutes

The recipe: our strategy today, safely use the microwave by student demonstration

  3 2 1Time Management Used time well throughout

lab to ensure things get done on time. Followed

agreed upon plan.

Used time well throughout most of lab, procrastinated on a few

duties.

Inadequate use of time management, lab ran

over allotted time limit.

Delegation of Responsibilities

Team worked cooperatively, everyone participated fully doing

their given job efficiently. (Head Chef, Assistant

Chef, Dishwasher, Host/Hostess)

Team worked cooperatively, however

one member did not complete their job

responsibilities.

Team did not worked cooperatively. Lab

members were arguing over delegation of

responsibility.

Working with Others Almost always listens to, shares with, and supports

the efforts of others.

Often listens to, shares with, and supports the

efforts of group members.

Rarely listens to, shares with, supports the efforts of group members. Often does not work well with

lab group.Lab Planning Actively participates in

planning for lab. Lab plan is filled out completely.

Participated in planning for the lab. The lab plan

is missing important information.

The lab plan is not completely filled out to complete the days lab.

Recipe Followed recipe without any direction.

Followed recipe with help from teacher.

Had difficulty following recipe.

 Specifically: Buffalo

Chicken Dip

Safety & Sanitation All safety and sanitation procedures are followed.

Specifically, students were present and attentive

when the stovetop was on.

Some safety and sanitation procedures

were followed. Specifically, students

were found sometimes not present and

attentive when the stovetop was on.

Very few safety and sanitation procedures

were followed. Specifically, students were no attentive to

stovetop and asked to sit out due to lack of safety

in the kitchen.Measurement All ingredients are

measured with proper equipment, using the

proper measuring steps.

Some ingredients are measured with proper equipment, using the

proper measuring steps.

A few ingredients are measured with proper equipment, using the

proper measuring steps.

Kitchen Equipment All kitchen equipment was used properly during the lab and put back in their

proper locations. Specifically, a skillet was

used to make the dip.

Some kitchen equipment was used

properly during the lab and put back in their

proper locations. Specifically, a skillet

was not used to make the dip.
