Creative DNA Assessment Protocol Instructions

​​

Educator Thoughts:
​
The strategy used was the Creative DNA. I feel like the strategy worked really well. Many students realized that they had much more in common than they anticipated. I found the most challenging thing was that students wanted to color in multiple traits that fit them. The success was it helped us create team roles and held students accountable in their group.
