Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In this form of assessment, a teacher embeds various forms of assessment all through the teaching and learning process. It is an ongoing assessment that allows teachers to monitor students on a day-to-day basis and modify their teaching based on what the students need to be successful.

Detailed explanation-2: -Formative assessment is about measuring where students are in their learning and giving them feedback, they say, and then working to fill in the gaps. Grading can shut down that process.

Detailed explanation-3: -Formative assessments have low stakes and usually carry no grade, which in some instances may discourage the students from doing the task or fully engaging with it. The goal of summative assessment is to evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it against some standard or benchmark.

Detailed explanation-4: -Record keeping is an essential aspect of grading and formative assessment. Each student’s entries should identify the child’s current proficiency level with each target and its criteria. A consistent record keeping system is essential for grading reliability.
