Pre-Assessment

For my unit on kindergarten math measurement, I have developed a Kahoot! Quiz to use as a pre-assessment before beginning. The standard I am assessing is:

CCSS.Math.Content.K.MD.A.2 Directly compare two objects with a measurable attribute in common, to see which object has "more of"/"less of" the attribute, and describe the difference. For example, directly compare the heights of two children and describe one child as taller/shorter. (corestandards.org, michigan.gov)
This brief quiz will allow me to group my students based on prior knowledge of measurement concepts. https://play.kahoot.it/#/k/0ec7ed92-ff9c-4400-b3d4-d405e85a9538  
The Kahoot! Quiz automatically scores the students’ answers. I will quickly and easily be able to determine who needs extra differentiation/reinforcement (0-3 correct answers), who is on track (4-5 correct answers), or who is above average and needs enrichment activities (6 correct).
Once I have determined my three differentiated groups, I can plan appropriate activities and formative assessments for each group. Those can be found on my mind map below.
