# MetaPet for Schools
## Assessment and Reflection

## No Marking Required

This sequence is designed for **light classroom evidence**, not grading.

Teachers do **not** need to:

- mark written paragraphs
- grade student performance
- create reports from the sequence
- manage formal rubrics

Teachers can collect simple evidence through two optional tools only.

## Tool 2: Teacher Observation Checklist

Use this while circulating. It is intended as a quick classroom note, not a scoring sheet.

### Observation checklist

| Student or pair | Reads companion state before acting | Explains cause and effect | Uses systems language | Suggests a regulation strategy | Works collaboratively |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| __________ | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet |
| __________ | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet |
| __________ | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet |
| __________ | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet | Yes / Not yet |

### What this tool captures

- cause/effect reasoning
- systems vocabulary
- regulation strategy
- collaborative reflection

## When To Use These Tools

- Use the **student reflection sheet** when you want one written sample for a portfolio or class discussion.
- Use the **teacher observation checklist** when you want a fast in-the-moment record without stopping the flow of the lesson.

That is enough evidence for this sequence.
