Performance Assessment format is uniform for each standard. The students will first have a set of directions giving the overall purpose for the project. Then they will get an outline to explain what needs to be done. Depending on the project the outline could have questions, instructions, or a checklist. At the end of the outline there will be an extension section that will have students demonstrate mastery of the content using the learned content in a expanded way. These allow me to assess the students on the 3D of the NGSS.
