Using selected scenes from Shakespeare, students are asked to analyze a major character (protagonist or antagonist) and present a monologue or video recording of their personal interpretation of the character's motivations and life experience.  The lesson will take approximately 4 class periods to complete.

A multi-age primary classroom teacher uses formative assessment as a barometer of student learning. She records anecdotal notes about her students' reading progress within an assessment notebook and references the notes for future instruction.
