Assessing RECONCILIATION – INTER-RELATING Joint Schools This term, the formally assessed theme is the SACRAMENTAL THEME - RECONCILATION We will be formally assessing AT1 (ii) and from Level 4 AT1(iii). The children may be informally assessed against the other strands. Each year group will assess from an activity taken from a Learning Focus in Reveal. The activities are listed over the next few slides. When planning please leave this task out. Please teach all of ‘Explore’, ‘Reveal’ (but not the task you will use for the formal assessment) then, after ‘Remember’, please formally assess.
