Launching a Data Team • What will the data team do?
Launching a Data Team • What roles must the data team utilize to achieve success?
Survey Data • Reviewing survey data • Think in terms of… • Start doing • Stop doing • Continue doing • How will you (or did you) share this data with your staff?
Reviewing from Day #2 • Culture • Collaboration • SLDS Navigation
Culture • Break into groups of four • Divide the article into equal sections • Read your section of the article ‘Positive or Negative’ • Share your section with the group • Discuss article
Collaboration • Resources • Team Analysis of Common Assessment • Data Team Process Sheet • PLC Cycle Notes • Utilize the 3R Strategy • Review • Rip • Revise
Reviewing the Website • www.ndseed.k12.nd.us • Assignment Resources • Sticky Note Activity • Examples ‘worth keeping’ • Write down the school and the title of the document • Be prepared to share one idea
Data Walls Activity • GET FOUR • Why utilize data walls?
Data Walls • Steps to building data walls: • Write predictions on a sheet of chart paper • Post predictions • Post a large graph or chart of data the organization is processing • Record observations from the graph or chart and record on chart paper • What will you commit to in your 100 Hour and 100 Day Plan?
Data Walls Activity • For examples, go to www.ndseed.k12.nd.us • General Resources
Jigsaw Collaboration Activity—Setting the Stage • Break into groups of four • Divide the article into equal sections • Read your section of the article ‘Moving Every Child: Building A Data Culture to Promote Academic Growth’ • Share your section with the group • Discuss article • Share out themes with group • How could you apply the ideas in the article to your organization?
Jigsaw Collaboration Activity—Setting the Stage • Break into groups of four • Divide the article into equal sections • Read your section of the article ‘Racine Unified School District’ • Share your section with the group • Discuss article • Share out themes with group • How could you apply the ideas in the article to your organization?
SLDS Exploration Activity • Utilize the SEED Day #3 Exploration Activity handout • Answer the questions WITH a partner • After answering the questions, collaborate as a team to decide actions steps: • How would you use these reports with peers? • How would you use these reports with students? • What are your next steps to make this reality (100 Hour and 100 Day Plan)? • https://slds.ndcloud.gov
Identifying Green, Yellow, and Red Light Students (Triangulation)
Student Directory Report • Purpose: Displays student proficiency details selectable by school year, grade, school, proficiency level, and student demographics
Student Directory: Triggers and/or Conversation Starters • The report contains: • Class schedule • Grades • Assessment scores • Program information • Attendance • College and career readiness • Transcripts
Spreadsheet Activity • Review spreadsheet: • 1. Determine headings for the spreadsheet. • What do you keep? • What do you add? • 2. Define your headings. • Be specific • 3. Determine ‘legend’ items. • 4. Assign ranking • Low number—less at risk; high number—at risk • Example for NDSA: • Advanced-0 Advanced-4 • Proficient-1 Proficient-3 • Partially Proficient-2 Partially Proficient-2 • Novice-3 Novice-1
The Fundamental Five • Frame the lesson • Teach in the power zone • Praise and encouragement • Critical writing • Small group purposeful talk
What is the Power Zone? • Teach or monitor in close proximity to: • One student • Small group of students • Entire classroom full of students • Increases effectiveness of other teaching practices • Classroom space is about learning and not about teaching Cain, S. & Laird, M. (2011). The Fundamental Five: The Formula for Quality Instruction
Why the Power Zone? • Improve Teaching and Maximize Student Learning • Monitor understanding • Answer questions • Differentiate as needed • Immediate feedback • Manage transitions • Two Minute Problem Cain, S. & Laird, M. (2011). The Fundamental Five: The Formula for Quality Instruction
Power Zone Activity • Draw what a classroom set up might look like when it is design • Things to Consider: • Can you get anywhere at any time without interrupting teaching and learning? • Get ‘there’ without verbal interaction • Stand next to any student (front, side, and behind) • Engage in non-teaching tasks without interruptingstudent learning
Activity: Breaking Down the Numbers • Divide the student list into three equal parts based on RIT score (achievement) • Categorize (color code the categories) • Top group—Above (blue) • Middle Group—At (yellow) • Below Group—Below (pink)
Activity: Designing the Lesson • Objective: Students will read through chapter five and complete a summary sheet detailing key concepts from the reading. • Should assignments be the same for all students? • Is having the same assignment fair and/or equal? • What do students in each category know? Need to know?
Activity: Designing the Lesson • Objective: Students will read through chapter five and complete a summary sheet detailing key concepts from the reading. • Above—Read Chapter Five and complete the ‘summary’ sheet. • Summary sheet simply identifies: • Number of key concepts required • Accompanying pages • Required number of details for each concept
