The instructional setting addressed is an 8th grade English class of 30 students from
Elm Community School. The topic of study in this lesson plan is Figurative Language, which
is part of a larger literary unit where students have learned about plot elements, character
motivations, setting, and themes. In this lesson students are expected to distinguish between
literal and figurative language, providing examples of figurative language and identifying the
seven types of figurative language. I will be reviewing the summative assessment of Vincente
Flores and Mingmei Zhang—both with English Language Learner Student Education
Programs (WGU, n.d.)—and identifying challenging areas based off of their learning needs.
Aspects of the Summative Assessment for Vincente
In this summative assessment there are two sections: objective and performance. In
the objective (multiple choice) section, students are to choose the correct type of figurative
language used in each of the ten given sentences, choosing from four options. In the
performance section, students are to write three original sentences showing examples of
figurative language, as well as correctly identify what type of figurative language they used.
Following a rubric for this section, students are to write one sentence about a person, one
sentence about a place, and one sentence about a thing—and use correct punctuation and
capitalization.
