Assignment # 7
Name: Fang Yin
Lesson Topic: Science
Grade: Grade 3
Length of time: minutes
Topic: Life Cycle of Animal and Plant
Description of the class
This class is made for the third grade science class of Chinese Adventist International
School. The Chinese Adventist International School is organized by several Adventist churches in
China. The school is located in a small beautiful city called Kunming in Yunnan Province. The
weather of four seasons is like spring, therefore people named here ‘Spring City’. The teachers
are from different countries and they all speak American English. This institution provides
education from pre-K to grade 6 and there are 700 students and 80 faculties and staffs in the
campus to help this education system running.
The local student occupy 60% of the whole population, and 14% of students are from other areas
of China, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. 12% of students are from western countries,
such as America, Canada, and New Zealand. 8% of students are from Taiwan and 6% are from
Korea. Due to the diversity of nationality, there are various religions too. As the account shows,
4
only 40% of students are Adventists and 13% are Christian too but from other dominations. The
rest is included 17% of Buddhist, 15% of Atheists and 5% of Catholicism.
The students of this school are 344 females 356 males. As there are majority Asian
students, English is not their first language. They have chosen this school due to two reasons, first
is this is a Adventist school, second is this is an English speaking school where the non-English
speaker can train themselves with fluent English. At the same time, all the teachers of this school
are Adventists and they were all graduated from qualified university, they are good at teaching
children and they have a lot of teaching experiences. This is the biggest reason for those parents
to trust in this institution.
This school has adopted American curriculum which puts more emphasis on children
centered and hands on teaching. The school offers English, Math, science, PE, Bible classes and
other extra- curriculum activities. To this science class, the subject will be taught by one teacher,
and several formative assessments will be given at the end of each unit. However, summative
assessment will be given too. This summative assessment is needed to checking the progress of
the students and it makes them to be aware of their own revision on this subject.

The purpose of assessment
This unit test defines as formative assessment. This test helps teacher to measure the
progress of students as they finish learning this unit. It also provides a chance for the
students to see their strengths and weaknesses. This assessment can be seen as an
evaluation that provides feedback for students to adjust their learning strategies and also
for the teacher to adjust their teaching style. However, when parents are involved, this
assessment can provide information to the parents in order to supervise their kids. In the
form of formative assessment, it continuously measures the learning process of students
and how are they doing in order to master the knowledge of these two units.
Explanation for the test items
Section A: True and False Items: it is used to check students’ ability to distinguish
facts and opinions.
Section B: Multiple Choice items: it is used to measure students’ ability of
understanding and application of the principles, and interpret cause-effect
relationships.
Section C: Matching: it is used to assess students’ ability to identify the accurate
answer according to what they have learned.
11
Section D: short answers: it is used to test students about specific knowledge
and simple interpretation of information about the units. In this section,
students need to recall the information or be able to compute the answer.
Section E: Interpretive Exercise items: it is used to assess students’ ability to
interpret written materials, charts, graphs, maps, pictures and reference
source. Students have to be able to measure more complex learning
outcomes and measure separate aspects of problems solving skills.
Section F: Restricted-response essay: it is used mainly to assess learning
outcomes that cannot be assessed with objective test items. Students have
to think critically and they have the freedom of response to the objective. It
requires higher order thinking skills toward the subject.

Flowering plant: any relevant answer
Part 1/ Section F
Essay
43. Facts about life cycle of an animal:
All organisms go through stages of development.
Environmental conditions such as water, temperature, and light affect the development of organisms.
In most mammals the stages of life go from the fertilized egg, to the fetus, the juvenile, and then to the adult
Birds go from the egg, to the chick, to the adult.
Insect go from the egg, to the larva, to the pupa, to the adult.
33
44. Expected answer:
The tree Nancy has met is a kind of Conifer. Conifer has needle or brush-like leaves. Each seed made by a plant is able to produce a new plant. For the seed to be produced, the plant needs light, water, oxygen, and nutrients. And the number of seeds that a plant makes depends on how many flowers are pollinated.

Self-Report
This can be my first time constructing my own test paper and I’ve
found that this even inspired me to go back and review the knowledge
together with students while making each question. After the first
assignment has turned in, I found there are tiny parts needed to be
revised in order to match with the previous assignment while I started
doing my second assignment. And I realized this becomes a continuous
effect when I do the other ones till the end. This process of revising is
actually a self monitoring process or self evaluating process. This helped
me to manage my own work to be more organized and effective. And it is
a record to let myself see the weakness and strength that I have. While
things have been on the half way, I found I become more familiar with
the construction work, but sometimes I was feeling like ‘lack of ideas’ in
my mind. Therefore, I started to search more information on internet.
Seeing the works of others gave me a lot of encouragements and ideas,
37
although I was struggling with the first two construction assignment. I
was fine after catching the pattern of construction, and through studying
the advantages and disadvantages of each objective items, it provided
me more ideas of how to put them in the right place.
In the future, I want to have a folder to store all my works in order to
monitor myself, on the other hand, to evaluate the tests I have made. By
doing this, I can give myself a lot of conveniences at the same time make
some improvements on it.
By constructing this test paper and evaluating the work of myself, I
realized that making a good quality test is not easy. Especially I have to
consider of including the knowledge students have learned without
repeating doing the same question in different test items. However,
avoiding finding answers from the questions itself even makes the test
construction harder. Yet, I have learned a lot about how to construct a
successful test paper, starting from the sequences of the test items, and
38
then the weaknesses and strengths of each test items. Lastly we have the
way of construction. Those steps seem to be simple, but they indicate
the effectiveness of every test paper.
