Explain the role the children will play in this piece of the portfolio process.

Describe the different types of evidence that are included in portfolios. Make sure to explain the role the children will play in this piece of the portfolio process.nMany different kinds of authentic evidence may be included in a portfolio (see Table 6.3). Regardless of the specific artifacts included, educators, children, and parents should all be involved in a portfolio’s development and utility if it is to meet the criteria for performance-based assessment (Seitz & Bartholomew, 2008). (Howard & Aiken, 2015). There are several types of evidence that are included in portfolios such as Writing samples (May include journal entries, stories, scribble progressions, and so on), Academic work sample (May include more formal academic documentation, such as traditional worksheets, science journal entries, and data collection, like graphs), Art projects(Examples of painting, drawing, coloring, cutting, gluing, and so on), Videos(Used to record performances (that is, singing), physical accomplishments (that is, climbing a structure on the playground), interactions (dramatic play with others), and so on), Photographs (Can document children’s physical abilities, like gross and fine motor skills, or can be used to more easily collect other forms of evidence, like a large piece of art or a sculpture created outside with natural materials—neither of which could be kept or stored easily), Skills checklists (Used to easily note which skills children have accomplished and when), Anecdotal notes (Used to record children’s words and actions) ; and Learning stories (Narrative account written by a teacher of an event that represents growth in a child; examples can be found at http://tomdrummond.com/learning-stories) (Howard & Aiken, 2015). Students create products for the collection of the assessment portfolio.n
