This activity encourages new participants to explore teacher planning, student engagement, assessment, and academic language development. By cutting benchmark guidance into smaller pieces, participants will sort them into four related categories without initial headings. This method fosters discussion and collaborative understanding of how effective instructional planning, assessment strategies, and student engagement contribute to academic language development and critical evaluation of significant historical events or social science phenomena. It emphasizes the practical application of assessment information and knowledge of students in educational contexts.
