Swagger Assessment Skills Unit
Dear Reader, is an interactive unit that works for students of all ages to teach exciting test prep strategies with high expectations. Whether used for end of the year testing or assessments throughout the year, this unit wins students over from the beginning. The PowerPoint helps you sympathize with the student for the repetitive test strategies lessons year after year, but then gives students concrete instructions to learn the skills once and for all. My main motivation for creating this unit was to find a way to hold student interest and get kids excited about learning new skills. In our classroom, we emphasize the value of perspective and a positive attitude and this unit is one more way we can have fun and bond as we fall to the floor laughing at our dance moves. The high expectation and increased student growth are additional components as we also constructively critique one another on individual areas of improvement for individual assessments. The reality of current teaching is that student scores do matter. Students need to know how to prevent mistakes so they are confident the score they earn is actually reflective of their ability level, while simple mistakes are kept to a minimum. This unit was originally created with my sixth grade reading students in mind, but I’ve found it can be used for both lower and higher grades. Anyone who needs to learn strategies for taking assessments will enjoy the unit. Use the breakdown and take your time exploring through the materials and activities for this unit. There are several components and you have the flexibility to pick and choose what works for you and your students. The unit information is presented in a frequently asked questions format to make it easier for you to meet your needs. Take your time and be open-minded to how you can incorporate these skills in your classroom.
Benefits
1. Increase attention span with self checking and movement with tools 2. Build student confidence with written and multiple choice responses, reading assessments, and teaching students to
defend their answers 3. Prevent mistakes to help students earn scores reflective of ability 4. Encourages parent involvement 5. Teach students to keep the academic expectation high while balancing fun
I hope you and your students are able to have as much fun as we do! You are encouraged to contact me if I can provide additional materials or if you have any comments and questions. Thank you,
Miss Crosby http://fortheloveoftweens.blogspot.com

SAS Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Where did this idea come from? The #Swaggerskills unit was created to help my students learn specific strategies when test taking while having fun. A colleague, Laurie Bryant, thought of the original “swagger” test prep theme when she saw the Swagger Wagon Commercial. The parents featured in the video make driving a minivan cool by singing a catchy parody and acting out skits with their two young children. This video ties to test prep because, while practicing test prep skills are not fun, with a little creativity and positive attitude we can both learn effective skills and create the most memorable time of the year.
Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ql-N3F1FhW4&feature=
What are ? #Swaggerskills are seven basic test strategies for any assessment or question-based activity written through the acronym SWAGGER. In my class, after we learn SWAGGER, we discuss what using SWAGGER looks like. So, how does the teacher know you are using your strategies? If he/she saw your paper, what would they see? With this question in mind, students made a list of strategies that you can
see, and thus created the second acronym of the unit: EVIDENCE. On a daily basis, students use an EVIDENCE checklist when reading and answering questions. The SWAGGER unit is more for general use. When referencing #Swaggerskills, we are referring to both SWAGGER and EVIDENCE checklists.
How does SAS work? Take a look at the PowerPoint titled Swagger Assessment Skills. The PP is set up exactly how my classroom will use the unit. Determine what aspects work for you, and how you would like to implement the unit. For example, do you want to focus on SWAGGER only, EVIDENCE only, or both SWAGGER and EVIDENCE together? I ask the students to make most choices for us, so I know I am giving them the right “dosage” of swagger. Swagger Assessment Skills PowerPoint
What steps should I follow to implement the unit like your classroom? First, have an open mind. With units like this, there is a lot of flexibility, so unless you are able to be incredibly organized and know what you envision right away, you are going to have to feel it out as it goes. Remember, the idea is to excite the students, not bore them, so their insight is mandatory. The example timeline below is a great starting point. !
What subject(s)? I designed both SWAGGER and EVIDENCE for reading and language arts assessments. SWAGGER is more general; EVIDENCE is specific to reading and language arts assessments. !

Suggested SAS Unit Timeline
1. Introduce the Swagger Assessment Skills PP 2. Spend some extra time on the video. Let students watch once, discuss the second time, and then
watch a third. Get the kids hooked. 3. Explain that you are going to have a #Swaggerskills themed unit. (I might stop here and pick up the
next day to extend excitement.) 4. Go over each #Swaggerskill. Together, discuss how you could use it in your classroom. Make a
separate list if necessary. 5. Determine as a class or with your school if you will collect money and create swagger toolkits. I have
included my research in this process to save you a few hours. 6. Give students blank checklists and vote on where students should put them. I hung a few in the
classroom for students who didn’t trust themselves. (Choice is important- let the students take ownership.)
7. Send home a parent letter explaining the unit. Ask the parents to write a secret #Swaggerskills completion letter. When students earn their certificates, you can hand these out to them as well. I sent home blank letters and envelopes. I also sent a parent email and a few reminders. I wrote letters for students whose parents did not (because students are so excited, you will have parent involvement). You could also have kids write each other letters.
8. Take a week for each letter. Do not tell the students the skill you are measuring because you want to see them tackle all of the skills. Take time to hand out dog tags from previous weeks to those who were absent or did not demonstrate that skill previously. Work with students who were missing dog tags and made sure they understood how to use the skill.
9. To help students earn dog tags, create a list of things they can do that show they used a skill. When finished brainstorming, show students the EVIDENCE checklist. Laminate a class set and put students in charge of caring for the checklists daily: handing out checklists, handing out dry erase markers, collecting checklists, collecting markers, cleaning checklists. The level of dependency you will use will vary for students.
10. Use the EVIDENCE checklists, independent activities, group work, excerpt and extended questions to give students opportunities to earn dog tags. Specific amounts of time will vary depending on students.
11. Once everyone is finished, celebrate. Designate a #Swaggerskills party day. On this day, called students up one at a time to show the class swagger moves in front of the class while listening to swagger theme song. You can designate an area to be the “stage” students walk across and stand on the other side of the stage with their certificates and swagger toolkits.

How long does the take? You can spend two days, a week, a month, or the whole year incorporating #Swaggerskills into your classroom. I introduced this at the beginning of fourth quarter, and was crunched for time. I am going to try to introduce it from the beginning of the school year this time around to give us more time and increase students confidence with assessment skills.
Swagger Terms Glossary?
#Swaggerskills = both SWAGGER and EVIDENCE skills #Swaggerskills Master = a person who has earned all of their SWAGGER dog tags and demonstrated their swagger dance/walk moves. You will have a certificate for this. #Swagger toolkit = the tools that help students while taking assessments #Swagger dog tags = individual letters cut out in the shape of dog tags to be adhered to each student checklist EVIDENCE = concrete tasks students can do to demonstrate understanding of #Swaggerskills
How do you teach each skill? You will see below that the type of students will determine the amount of class instruction and guidance used. I expect all students to take their time and show me mastery of all skills initially. Then, once demonstration has been shown, I will let students pick and choose which the skills work best for them individually. Each student must know the importance of all of the skills, so he or she has the choice to decide through trial and error which ones work best for him or her. Honors and gifted students will often struggle with assuming they are right. They defend their answers, rather than taking a step back to see where they made a mistake. These students can accomplish most of the skills on their own simply with your explanation. You will focus on “Reread” and asking yourself where you made a mistake. I might do one story and set of questions a week with these students. A majority of the students will struggle in different areas, or will be confused with exactly what needs to be on the paper. With these students, I will teach the class and show the class by example exactly what their #Swaggerskills on the assessment should look like. You can use the EVIDENCE checklists and have students check each others. You will need to remind students to go slow and critique because students might think they are doing the skill correctly, even if they are not. For example, “Did you put your evidence based reasoning next to that to show me why you slashed it out?” The words “No” on the paper do not count. For struggling readers, these checklists are a huge help. I will teach the class and do a couple examples together. We might practice once together. Then I will break the class into small groups and focus on specific skills in small group settings. I will work on the passages as a class each day in small group settings. I will work closely with all students until he or she shows independent confidence to try on his or her own.
SAS Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
! 7!
How do you measure each skill? I worm around the room. If a student highlighted and wrote notes by all questions, he or she would get a “W“ dog tag. I choose whether the student earned the dog tag,
not the student. If I don’t see evidence when I am walking around, I might wait until the next day to check again or even longer.
Do any students resist the unit? Yes. I had students who did not like the unit. I worked with the students to figure out how they were going to survive without bringing their negativity on
others. We created alternative acronyms and a different theme (or no theme) for the skills. We kept it between us as respect for the amount of students this unit was helping.
Do you really expect students to do all of these skills on every assessment? No. I expect students to know and understand all skills. When you earn your #Swaggerskills certificate, you may choose the skills that work for you.
What ages? I think any student who needs to practice assessment strategies could benefit from
this SAS Unit. What is EVIDENCE? EVIDENCE is the acronym used to show students exactly what their papers should look like if they are
using these skills. For example, we often tell students to answer all part of the question, however this is a broad request. You will get vague results and struggling students need more guidance in order to understand your specific expectations (based off learning the hard way). The checklist shows students how to answer all parts of the question.

2014-2015 School Year Swagger Assessment Skills
Dear Parents and Guardians, We are going to learn assessment strategies and test preparation with a #Swaggerskills theme. Teaching the students to have swagger while taking tests is a fun way to effectively review both test taking strategies and reading skills, all while building confidence and minimizing test anxiety. In an attempt to draw student interest, I have created a swagger toolkit for each student that motivates, helps improve performance, and creates a relaxing environment during this high intensity time. Your participation and reinforcement of enthusiasm and hard work will make all the difference in your child’s success with assessments. We ask for your participation in a few ways, and encourage any additional ideas. First, please complete the attached blank note to write a complimentary letter to your child. You can tell him or her how proud you are, how smart he or she is, and give a few specific examples. You are welcome to use a different paper if desired. Please return in sealed envelope by the date at the bottom. Secondly, I would love to prepare a “Swagger Toolkit” for each child. In order for this to happen, we are asking for a five-dollar donation from each parent. Included is a list of what will be purchased with your five dollars, how it will help your child, and how it connects to our swagger theme. Because we need to wait for all the money to order the tool kit, we have created the small window of time to return the five dollars by. As soon as all money is collected, items will be ordered. Thank you for your support in creating a positive learning environment that will encourage our students to work hard and build confidence. Once we have all the items, they will be handed to students with certificates when they demonstrate mastery of each #Swaggerskill. Letters from parents will be saved for the end of the unit as well. Please email me with any questions. Sincerely, !!!!!

The Swagger Toolkit Defined The Swagger Toolkit requires a little extra work, time, and money, but is totally worth all three when your unit is twice as successful! If you are creative, this can be done with little to no cost. You can collect money, use school funds, or think of savvy alternatives to create a Swagger Toolkit for your classroom. I chose to do a combination of buying and making accessories in order to keep the budget as small as possible. Students brought in $5 donations, which was a much more convincing sell when sent home with the parent letter explaining the unit and an opportunity for parents to get involved (by writing their child a letter). Our Swagger Toolkit was a surprise for the students. I sent the information home with the parents, so obviously some children started to figure out what some of the items were. Rumors and whispers spread until students actually got to see their toolkits. The rumors actually made it more exciting, because the students couldn’t wait to see their toolkits. For some the bags were a fun, cheesy joke as the toolkit is pretty cheap. For others, it was really exciting. The student perspective will depend on your enthusiasm to the unit. Either way, every student found multiple excitable items I used some of the props when they arrived. The list of items and how we used them is on the Swagger Toolkit 101 Teacher Edition (next page). The pages following will show you how we got our final list of items. I share with you my research on the three price options on the cheapest but worthy items. There is a blank sheet for you to use while you make the same choices. Websites and prices are there on these as well! You will see several inexpensive items sold in bulk. I was able to get some extra goodies for extremely cheap (around $5 for 72 sharpeners…it’s just a bonus item so I am not worried about the actual functionality…although zero students complained about them breaking…). While saving the Swagger Toolkits for the party gives students excitement, you can find other ways to incorporate swagger props as you are in the middle of your unit to keep the energy level up. For example, I got stamps to use and students would put various stamps on their reading passages before starting to start positive. Sometimes they chose a stamp that related to reading, other times an emotion. You will enjoy their faces when you persuade them to doodle a picture by the title as they begin reading. As a second prop, I put out a class set of colored pens for us to use. We kept them in a bucket where everyone knew their location. The students love using the different colors when taking notes. !!Swagger Toolkit Pages Below:

purpose. Have fun showing and drawing different doodled thought-
clouds.)

Neon Slap Bracelet
Saved for party Use quietly so it maintains purpose. Wear on wrist unless using for purpose. Outside of
class, it stays on wrist or goes in locker. You can play swords at home.
No chances – if another teacher complains once, you must keep it
at home.
Mints Saved for party (A fellow teacher donated a pack for class use prior.)
During testing, you must unwrap prior and set on your desk.
The rest of us are going to cringe at your not quiet unwrapping, and tomorrow we will eat your share
of mints.
Gum Saved for party (I bought extra with my own money and used as an
incentive once a week for all things swagger related. For example, I
would randomly give a piece of gum or mint to students who got 100% on
a swagger quiz, did homework, or helped a classmate find text based
evidence.)
If you are given gum, you may chew in class. Be “cool” about it… chew quietly, mouth closed, and don’t brag. When you are
finished, put it in the trash. When you leave the classroom, throw the gum away. It’s
pretty cool of your teacher to allow you to do this, so say thanks and don’t abuse it.
Do not ask another teacher to chew gum. Then he/she is mad at me because I put
him/her in a bad spot.
No chances- I am not handing out gum to anyone I don’t trust if any
gum is found or a teacher mentions students asking. If it was an obnoxious chomp or bubble, spit
out for the day [insert teacher eye stare].
Not fair if I don’t trust you? Earn trust then. This is my job!
Colored Pens Saved for party (Order extra for class set to use in advance. Keep a
close eye on them!)
Choose a color on the first day. Use this color every day (using the same color is the
purpose). Yes, you can choose black or blue if you hate color. Stick to your pen color.
The rest of us don’t have our pen if you take it, so we are going to
be upset.
Mustache Tattoo
Saved for party Take turns to use restroom and put them on at school before an assessment. We waited a couple days for this. Put it on or put it away.
Mustache Eraser
Saved for party

Suggested SAS Unit Timeline
1. Introduce the Swagger Assessment Skills PowerPoint 2. Spend some extra time on the video. Let students watch once, discuss the second time, and then
watch a third. Get the kids hooked. 3. Explain that you are going to have a #Swaggerskills themed unit. (I might stop here and pick up the
next day to extend excitement.) 4. Go over each #Swaggerskill. Together, discuss how you could use it in your classroom. Make a
separate list if necessary. 5. Determine as a class or with your school if you will collect money and create swagger toolkits. 6. Give students blank checklists and vote on where students should put them. I hung a few in the
classroom for students who didn’t trust themselves. (Choice is important; let the students take ownership.)
7. Send home a parent letter explaining the unit. Ask the parents to write a secret #Swaggerskills completion letter. When students earn their certificates, you can hand these out to them as well. I sent home blank letters and envelopes. I also sent a parent email and a few reminders. I wrote letters for students whose parents did not (because students are so excited, you will have parent involvement). You could also have kids write each other letters.
8. Take a week for each letter (or two letters). Do not tell the students the skill you are measuring because you want to see them tackle all of the skills. Take time to hand out dog tags from previous weeks to those who were absent or did not demonstrate that skill previously. Work with students who were missing dog tags and made sure they understood how to use the skill.
9. To help students earn dog tags, create a list of things they can do that show they used a skill. When finished brainstorming, show students the EVIDENCE checklist. Laminate a class set and put students in charge of caring for the checklists daily: handing out checklists, handing out dry erase markers, collecting checklists, collecting markers, cleaning checklists. The level of dependency you will use will vary for students.
10. Use the EVIDENCE checklists, independent activities, group work, excerpt and extended questions to give students opportunities to earn dog tags. Specific amounts of time will vary depending on students.
11. Once everyone is finished, celebrate. Designate a #Swaggerskills party day. On this day, call students up one at a time to show the class swagger moves in front of the class while listening to swagger theme song. You can designate an area to be the “stage” students walk across and stand on the other side of the stage with their certificates and swagger toolkits.
Side note: The amount of time you spend completing the swagger board can vary significantly. You can
complete the whole board in one day, one week, or several months. This depends on your mood, teaching style, and how much time you think students need to master the skills.

While the SWAGGER theme is a great way to remember skills, sometimes students struggle with knowing specifically how to execute strategies. For example, telling a student to break down a question into parts or read the questions before reading the passage both make sense on the outside, but you aren’t going to see a change in student strategies unless you show the students what it looks like. So, if I (the teacher) were looking at your (the student) test, how would I know you broke down the extended question? Did you mark how many points each individual question is worth or make a graphic organizer to the side to divide the questions by point value? If number 5 on a test is worth five points, you should be figuring out where each of the five points comes from. Following the same pattern, how would I see that you read the questions ahead of time? You would know this because each question has words highlighted and quick notes about what standard the question is measuring. You would also circle or take note of the subject or information to keep an eye out for in the passage. You can buy the EVIDENCE resources on another document, but below are the main documents that will allow you to implement EVIDENCE with the #Swaggerskills unit. Basic EVIDENCE Implementation Instructions:
1. Create a list as a class of assessment strategies before, during, and after reading. 2. One of those strategies should be to determine the genre of the passage. As a reader, you will want to pay close
attention to the way you approach poetry, nonfiction, and fiction. This is another chart you can create as a class. 3. Once you have a completed list of before, after and during strategies, go through each skill one at a time looking for
strategies that can be seen by someone else. You will have some good discussion debating these. 4. The EVIDENCE acronym was developed around the before, during, and after strategies that you can see. With your
class, compare the list you created to the EVIDENCE acronym. Have students track how many are on both lists. Are there any that you have that need to be added?
5. Teach students what each EVIDENCE strategy looks like. Practice with examples. Have students grade each other’s passages using the checklist (not paying attention to the answers). You can do activities with one skill at time, all at once, or any combination in between.
