I
C
E
R
Command words, key words, key information
Highlight
Look for proof to support the claim from the data given. (From graphs, diagrams, tables etc)
Evidence
Show how or why the evidence can support the claim (Use Science concepts)
Reason

Types of Assessment in ESPSFormative Assessment (FA)Assessment that is carried out to provide timely feedback to adjust ongoingteaching and learning in order to improve students’ achievement of intendedlearning outcomes. Marks will not be awarded for such assessment and theydo not count towards the subject grade. Eg: Math Journal, Show & Tell etc.
Weighted Assessment (WA) – not applicable to Primary 6Assessment for which marks attained count towards the subject grade. Eg: Mini Quiz, Practical Test etc.
Standardised Assessment Assessment that is carried out, scored and interpreted in a consistent mannerwithin the school. For example: Mid year and final year examination
