1.) Why Preassess? Preassessment plays a critical role in your ability to differentiate instruction. You administer preassessments before you being the instruction in a curricular unit in order to gain an understanding of what your students know, understand, and are able to do. Without preassessment, you do not know the preparedness of your students for new learning, the specific learning differences amongst your students, or where to begin devising new curriculum goals (Heacox,). It is a way to determine what students know about a topic before it is taught. It should be used regularly in all curricular areas
