Traffic Light Self Assessment
Topic: Classroom Management
(This idea was contributed by a visitor)
Age Range: 5 to 11

I am encouraging my year 4 class to self assess and think more carefully about their learning.

In Maths we use a traffic lights system. At the end of each lesson the children draw a circle and write:

When I mark the books and feedback to the children or parents it is really useful to know how they feel about the topic and helps me target children more effectively in class. If the letters G, O, R are written rather than coloured it means the children s assessment is still visible if the work is photocopied.
