Formative assessment is conducted throughout a unit to check in with how the students are understanding the content. This could be exit tickets, quick little 2 question slips, checkpoints, etc.
Summative assessment happens at the end of the unit and is to show how much the students have learned on the content cumulatively. Summative assessments are worth the most points because they cover the whole of the content taught.
