Assessment
Students will be assessed on an ongoing basis based on the work produced in the WeKWL, WeWrite, Word Collage. The culminating activity will be used to determine how well they recycled language learned throughout the three lessons and be based on the rubric below. This writing rubric is from the Alberta Education website - ESL Benchmarks. I will also use the tracking sheets related to Listening, Speaking and Reading from the following link to assess students work on the iPads.

Cloze Activity
Students will also complete 2 cloze activities based on unmodified text from the Social Studies textbook - Voices of Canada. They will have access to the Pages app document on their iPads. A sample of the text (with images) and cloze activity is shown below. This will also add new vocabulary to their word collage.
