A TOOL BOX FOR TEACHERS 

The Tool Box for Teachers: Planning, Assessment & Evaluation, and Reporting was compiled with the intention of helping educators pull together the many elements of these interconnected areas into a coherent whole. Making connections between planning, assessment & evaluation, and reporting, will provide you, the teacher, and your students, with a clearer vision of the educational year. Cohesive planning will provide clear direction as you journey with your class towards the prescribed learning destination. With an overall vision in place, all the monthly, weekly and daily teaching requirements become the logical steps to fulfilling this vision, rather than stressful "additions" to your teaching load.

A first time user of the Tool Box is encouraged to look at the sections of the document as a whole, in order to understand the overall connections. Contents pages at the start of each of the three following sections will help you to locate specific information.

Section A, the Planning Cycle, outlines the three-step approach to planning.

Section B, the Assessment and Evaluation component, forms the basis for an approach, which emphasizes assessment-driven planning and instruction.

Section C, the Reporting Process Guidelines for Catholic Elementary Schools, were revised at the outset of the 2005/06 school year, since many new directives from the B.C. Ministry took effect in July, 2006.

Both Sections A and B are currently under review.
If you have specific questions or need clarification on any aspect of planning, assessment or reporting, please contact the Superintendent's Office.
