Summary: This assessment plan follows a timeline

for engaging students with the content of the unit
and assessing their knowledge and skills with the
unit content. The assessments follow downwards
by time in the unit, with entry level coming first
followed by formative and finally summative. In
each category the relative time in the unit is shown
with the first assessment starting from the left and
continuing to the right. This is ordered to match the
progression of skills and the need to measure these
skills throughout the unit.
Entry level assessments include a brainstorming
and discussion of the nature and types of art
present in the world to begin to engage students
prior knowledge, the second assessment deals with
engaging students creative skills and memory by
having them recreate an art piece they may have
seen, this ties into the effect of art on us as
individuals and hopefully provides a connection for
later in the unit should students come across the
art piece they drew in either the Louvre or Muse
DOrsay.
Formative assessments follow the progression
through the unit and gauge skill in the different
linguistic aspects of the unit. These involve mostly
quizzes but with digital and interactive aspects

such as videos or maps. These all serve to assess

learning goals presented in the Unit Plan. In order
they serve to: assess retention and mastery of unit
vocabulary involving identifying types of art and
locations and objects in a museum, assess mastery
of map reading skills and reading comprehension
as well as recognizing locations in a museum,
assess listening comprehension of key unit
vocabulary, the history of the Louvre and the key
themes, techniques and concepts of the major art
movements seen in the two museums studied
through the unit and finally the last assessment
gauges student understanding of the two key verbs
for expressing knowledge for the unit savoir (to
know information) and connatre (to be familiar
with or to have experience with).
Finally the final two summative assessments serve
to gauge student understanding of the entire unit,
both linguistically and conceptually. The first
assesses students ability to research and observe
the important aspects of a particular art piece and
the information and history behind that particular
art piece. It also serves to put into practice the
concept of what art says about our own tastes as
an individual (by having them choose the art piece)
as well as a society (reflecting on the deeper
message of the art piece). The last summative

assessment serves to again put the concepts of art

and message into practice by having students
purposefully choose images, details, formats and
more to present their information and their
research in a physical format, in short making their
own piece of art.
