  1. Analyzing & Using the Math Data on the AIR WebsiteOLPA Fall 2013 DataMiddle School PrincipalsWhat do you notice? What will we do together? Read the Standards! Read the Standards!How do you teach the standards? Kathleen Wilson, PreK-12 Math Supervisor Wednesday, November 13, 2013

  2. Welcome and Agenda • OLPA overview • District data by grade and ethnicity • What do you notice? and What do we do together? • Interpreting OLPA data on AIR website • Resources available • Using the OLPA data with growth mind-set goal sheets • For schools / principals • For teachers • For students • Feedback

  3. MCA Resources on SPPS Math Website Secondary: http://thecenter.spps.org/standards_and_mca_practice_2.html Password: “tautology” Elementary: http://thecenter.spps.org/mca_iii Password: “mathspps”

  4. OLPA???? (Optional Local Purpose Assessment) Remember OLPA is similar to a pretest for the year. It is measuring students on what they need to know by the end of the grade level to be proficient. The OLPA score suggests that if a student were taking their grade level MCA on this same day this would be their score for the April MCA. We do not have target charts for OLPA like we had for MAP. This is our first time giving the OLPA in the Fall so we do not have a comparison. The OLPA is not designed to measure academic progress across multiple grade levels.

  5. What? • Online assessment • MCA items assessing grade level standards • Multiple choice items • Technology-enhanced items • Pause at any point in the test and resume the test later in the window • No participation requirements • Limited accommodations materials

  6. Why? Preparation and practice for MCA assessment (concepts and process) Focus on assessing grade level content standards and benchmarks Baseline assessment and goal setting Determination of what types of instruction and supports students will need assistance in before the accountability test

  7. When?SPPS OLPA History

  8. Who ? grade 4 sample item grade 3 sample item Students grades 3-8 Students who took/will take MTAS or MCA modified.

  9. Technology Enhanced Items grade 8 sample item grade 7 sample item

  10. Saint Paul Public Schools • Approximately 39,000 students • Asian American 31% (12,100 students) • African American 29% (11,300 students) • White/Caucasian 24% (9,400 students) • Latino/Hispanic 14% (5,500 students) • American Indian 2% (800 students) • 64 schools/programs

  21. Courageous Conversations about Race Protocol • Four Agreements • Stay engaged • Speak your truth • Experience discomfort • Expect and accept non-closure • Six Conditions • Focus on personal, local and immediate • Isolate race • Normalize social construction & multiple perspectives • Monitor agreements, conditions and establish parameters • Use a "working definition" for race • Examine the presence and role of "Whiteness”

  22. What is it about… our educational system… our instructional practices… our personal beliefs … our personal actions … that we consistently have this pattern in our data?

  23. Math Literacy • Western culture and math beliefs • The math gene • Math as a gatekeeper • Feeling powerful • Enjoy math… feel successful at math… … will do more math

  24. SPPS Beliefs about Learning for All Adapted from: Feuerstein’sTheory of Structural Cognitive Modification

  25. Four “Rs” of Culturally Responsive Teaching

  26. Four “Rs” of Culturally Responsive Teaching Relationships: How will I build relationships with teachers, students, and families? Rigor: In what ways will I message to ALL students that they are expected to attain high standards? Realness: What strategies will I use to make sure students and adults are able to show up as their authentic selves? Relevance: How will I make sure the curriculum relates to students’ experiences, interests and backgrounds?

  27. Activity with 4 Rs and Math Instruction

  28. Culturally Responsive Teaching It’s only culturally responsive if our students are responsive to the strategy, curriculum, or instruction. One strategy may be effective and engaging for one student or student group and not another.

  32. OLPA Baseline Data & Goal Setting For students …. Growth Mind-Set For teachers …. Growth Mind-Set Progress monitoring tool and common formative assessments …. Growth Mind-Set For principal / school …. Growth Mind-Set We need to know how to access and use the OLPA data now, so that in the winter we can quickly access, use, and plan with the OLPA data.

  33. Student ReportsScale Score and Achievement Levels Have individual student conferences about their OLPA data.

  34. Test Specifications & Strands

  35. Stanines (1-3 below average, 4-6 average, 7-9 above average)

  36. MCA STRAND data for group Stanines (1-3 below average, 4-6 average, 7-9 above average) Strength Weakness

  37. Student Strand Performance Stanines (1-3 below average, 4-6 average, 7-9 above average)

  38. Secondary Math Messages for Strategic Support Strategies: Using SPPS Resources to teach, assess, and progress monitor the benchmarks while Providingdifferentiated coaching support, implementation feedback, and training while Building capacity of school leadership for: • Coaching 50+ “new” secondary math teachers • FES Problem Solving process – teaching strategy used to build student capacity to solve MCA like items through the 4 Rs of culturally responsive teaching • FES Math Review & Mental Math – teaching strategy focused on filling gaps in students computational skills

  39. Elementary Math Messages for Strategic Support Strategies: Using SPPS Resources to teach, assess, and progress monitor the benchmarks while Providingdifferentiated coaching support, implementation feedback, and training while Building capacity of school leadership for: • FES Math Review & Mental Math – teaching strategy focused on filling gaps in students’ computational skills and number sense • Everyday Math Part 2 - differentiation with flex groups & manipulatives • PLCs focused on instructional strategies (based on common formative assessment data)that use manipulatives and support the 4 Rs of culturally responsive teaching
