Which kind of assessment was most difficult to create? Why?
The most difficult assessment is going to be the Question Based Assessment. This is because I will need to be making sure that all of my questions are matching up with the levels and are still relating to my learning targets. That the questions are getting the students to be thinking deeper than just the surface level of the questions. That the information that I am wanting to get across to the students is being done so by the questions.
Which one was most easy? Why?
I think that the performance assessment will be the easiest as I will be able to see what is being done by the students. I will be able to see what they are doing and have my rubric to assess them off of. I will be able to grade the students quickly on whether or not they are meeting the requirements within each section of the rubric that I would have organized for them.
What was something that surprised you about creating assessments?
Nothing necessarily surprised me as I know my weakness is assessments and that these assignments creating the assessment and rubrics is going to be a challenge for me. I am expecting it to take me a decent amount of time to produce quality assessments and rubrics as I struggle with this area.

Lesson Planning
What part of planning is coming easy to you? What part is not as intuitive for you? Explain.
For me the parts that are coming easy to me are the instruction and introduction. Though I understand that my methods can still be fine tuned and improved. It is simply the parts that are coming easier for me. This is because I am able to envision the students coming into the gym and how I would want that to look. I can think about of how I want to instruct the students and am able to picture how I think the best way would be to do that. Again with the understanding that my thought process may not be the most effective, but for what I can see at the time and without any or very little practical application, it is what I am able to come up with.
The part that I am struggling with or lacking intuition on are the assessment portions. Ensuring that I am using the correct assessments, the correct terms for the assessment, conducting the assessment correctly. Making sure that the method I am using is suitable for my learning target. Making sure that I allot enough time for the assessment that I am wanting to implement in my classroom or gym.

Assessments
Types of Assessments:
Selected response
-Pro- This assessment is good when what is being assessed is more cognitive than that of a physical nature.
-Con- This assessment is not meant to accurately measure skills or someone producing something physical.
Extended Written Response
-Pro- This kind of assessment is to be used again in more of the cognitive sense. It allows a deeper understanding of the student's thinking.
-Con- This assessment does not allow an accurate assessment of physical skills.
Performance Assessment
-Pro- This assessment is more for the physical side. It gives a good representation of what can be assessed.
-Con- It does not allow the cognitive functions to be assessed very accurately.
Personal Communication
-Pro- This can allow assessment be applied in various areas as a conversation can be had showing knowledge and understanding of various areas.
-Con- This assessment is not good when a product needs to be produced as there is not much evidence to support it than the conversation itself.
As you begin writing your lesson plan, what role will assessment play?
The assessment will guide me in making sure that my learning target is accurate and matches with the standard that I have chosen. Making sure that my assessment matches my learning target is important because then the accuracy of the assessment is proven and can be trusted once the results are in from the assessment. The assessment I use will also inform me if there are any other materials that I will need in order to perform the assessment of the students. It will inform me of the time that I would need to make available in order to perform the assessment and it will also dictate how I have the class organized to make it so the assessment is as efficient as possible.
