Is there a unit final assessment for CommonLit 360 units?

Each unit ends with a Culminating Task, and these will be essays or presentations. These tasks ask students to analyze unit texts and use the writing skills taught in the unit.

Culminating Tasks may demonstrate student learning and proficiency through a variety of formats (writing, speaking, presentations, research, or a combination of modes) and collaboration structures, such as in small groups or pairs. Written tasks can include literary analysis, argumentative writing, or expository writing, and student presentations.

Culminating Tasks are assessed using the associated rubric, which allows teachers and students to track and understand how students are performing in relation to the focus standards in the unit. Teachers can use the data collected from the culminating task to evaluate students' overall understanding of unit knowledge and skills, monitor student progress towards learning goals, provide valuable feedback to students, and plan subsequent instruction
