Sample Assessment Items This is not meant to be printed off and given as a test…this document is to give you ideas of how this standard might be assessed. Please use these as an example when you are developing your own formative assessments. Remember formative assessment is to be given throughout the teaching of a standard to help you guide your instruction based on students needs. A good formative assessment should have a mix of multiple choice as well as open ended. S5L3 Students will diagram and label parts of various cells (plant, animal, single celled, multi-celled). a. Use magnifiers such as microscopes or hand lenses to observe cells and their structure. Multiple Choice: Which of these would be best viewed using the microscope shown above? a. a star b. a rock c. a snail d. a cheek cell Answer: d Which piece of scientific equipment would you use to view human cells? a. computer b. microscope c. microwave d. telescope Answer: b Long ago, scientists did not know that cells existed because _____________. a. they did not have microscopes b. they were too busy studying plants c. they were not allowed to do research on animals d. they were studying the sun and the planets instead Answer: a What kind of instrument would you need to clearly see the individual cells on a dragonfly wing? a. a telescope b. a microscope c. a stereoscope d. a magnifying glass Answer: b Sam and Ben collected some pond water for science class. They wanted to see what was living in the water. They could see green algae, but Sam believed there were other things there as well. What piece of lab equipment should they use to see the smallest animals that live in the pond water? a. hand lens b. telescope c. microscope d. magnifying glass Answer: c Lisa wants to compare a plant cell to an animal cell. Which tool should she use? a. hand lens b. microscope c. pan balance d. telescope Answer: b Which part of a flowering plant can be seen only by using a microscope? a. seeds b. pollen c. chloroplast d. flower petals Answer: c Leo wants to collect a water sample so he can study pond microorganisms. Which of these would be the BEST tools to use to view a water sample? a. b. c. d. Answer: a Open ended: How does a microscope allow a person to see small objects such as cells?
