Middle School • Goal: All teachers have ownership • Not just core teachers • Divided teachers into teams • Reading • Math • ELL • SPED • General Ed
Middle School • Explained how to use data filter • Questions asked of Math/Rdg. teams • Looked for trends/patterns in Math, Reading • passing vs. courses taken (RM level, diff. math) • Who passed in 09-10 but failed in 10-11 • Scaled Score—How close were they either way? • Which kids need extra help this year to pass/stay passing? • Written response
CMS Student Ownership • Data Folders • Students graph the results of their assessments each year on color-coded sheets • Benchmarks are marked on the sheets so the students know if meeting/exceeding • Longitudinal assessment data for each student in one place • Folders follow students from year to year
CMS Student Ownership • Students Keep Assessment Data For: • Reading • NeSA, DIBELS (5-6), AimsWeb (7-8), Stanford • Math • NeSA, AimsWeb, Stanford • Science • NeSA, Stanford • Social Studies • Stanford • NeSA-W • StanfordTotal Language, Vocabulary, Complete Battery • ELDA
Middle School • Questions asked of teams-written response • General Ed questions • Find 10 lowest/highest students on each list. Any on both? • What area was the biggest struggle for low kids…vocab or comprehension? • With those lists, teachers then were asked how they could target instruction to middle/high kids while still meeting needs of lower students
Evolution • Simpler • Palatable • Useable • A start • Gained professionally in how to read and use a variety of data
