Help with assessing thinking!

[Barry Bashutski]

The Eston-Elrose S.D has asked for assistance on the following topic. Is
your school division working in this area? What is your school division
doing regarding improveing assessment and reporting of student progress?

Improving the quality of student thinking is a high priority in the
Eston-Elrose School Division. The approach being used is infusing critical
and creative thinking into the content areas. In order to assess the
students thinking skills and provide corrective feedback on how students
can improve the way they think we need help assembling appropriate
assessment tools, such as rubrics and graphic organizers. Has anyone
developed rubrics and graphic organizers for the following skills?

Inferring Hypothesizing
Generalizing Predicting
Classifying Evaluating
Comparing Synthesizing
Summarizing Analyzing
