    The document outlines steps for designing formative assessments in science for class IX. It recommends 1) analyzing content to identify key concepts, formulas, diagrams and activities/experiments, and 2) constructing assessment tools and methods. Some suggested formative assessment methods include pen and paper tests with different question types, tasks based on experiments and analyses, projects, group discussions, quizzes and puzzles. The assessments are meant to test knowledge, understanding and application of concepts taught in class for chapters on matter, atoms, molecules and atomic structure.

    Macro Planning of

    Formative Assessments In Science For Class IX: An Exemplar

    Introduction

    For designing and developing tools for formative assessment in science, we may follow
    the steps and mentioned below:

    1. Content Analysis of the unit


    Identify the concepts
     Symbols, formulae, rules and laws, calculations
     Diagrams
     Activities/experiments

    2. Construction of Tools and Methods of Assessment

    Formative assessment can be done using one or more of the following


    methods:

    i. Pen and paper test : this may be done by devising


     Multiple choice questions
     Very short answer questions
     Short answer questions

    ii. Tasks based on activities / experiments

     Performing the activity


     Analyzing observation
     Drawing inference

    Questions can be asked based on the activity / experiment performed by the child

    iii. Tasks based on project work / survey :

     School / home based projects: e.g. make a list of substances around you and group
    them into elements, compounds and mixture.
     Visit a nearby dairy and prepare a report about the process of separating cream
    from milk
     Make a survey and write a report on the processes involved in getting the supply
    of drinking water from water works to your home
     Projects related to social and environmental issues should be encouraged

    iv. Activities and project work should be followed by a group


    discussion

    v. Group discussions can also be done on a particular topic / concept.


    Which will assess the understanding of that concept by each
    learner

    vi. Quiz and crossword puzzles may also be given.

    vii. All the above mentioned tasks may be designed to test the
    knowledge, understanding and application of the concepts taught
    in the class.

    viii. Methods used for assessing the performance of a child will depend
    upon the nature of the task.

    ix. The tasks designed for formative assessment for class IX, science
    are developed for the following chapters

     Chapter 2:- Is Matter Around Us Pure


     Chapter 3:- Atoms and Molecules
     Chapter 4:- Structure of Atom
