    15. Mesilla Park Elementary A creative approach applying sampling in reading 44 essential reading skills for 4th graders Vocabulary Phonic Analysis Dictionary Skills Comprehension

    16. Mesilla Park Example The last day of the baseball season was here. My team was in the championship. All summer I had played right field. Last summer I played first base and we only won two games. Today though Ana Lopez would take my place. I had fallen off my bike and sprained my wrist.

    17. Sample Quiz Items In the first paragraph, there are commas missing in the fifth sentence. Rewrite the sentence, using commas correctly. In consonant digraphs, two consonants together make one sound. Write two words from the first paragraph which begin with consonant digraphs.

    18. Mesilla Park – Key Concepts in Writing (5th) There are things to know about writing. Writing can be classified as fiction (narrative) or nonfiction (expository). Every story (narrative) has a beginning, middle, and end. The PLAN for a narrative includes characters, setting, problem, and solution.

    19. Carolyn Ayers – Math Facts Concern for speed and accuracy Why not graph how long it takes to finish all the problems? Plus our number right? Why not graph how many right answers in a given time?

    20. Other Math Approaches Math “families” 2 + 2 = 4 4 – 2 = 2 2 + 3 = 5 3 + 2 = 5 5 – 2 = 3 5 – 3 = 2 Triangles

    21. What about Performance? Learn the basics in order to do the complex. Sampling and counting work here, too. Modify the graphs to show rubric levels or counts.

    22. Mesilla Park - Writing State rubric Planned grades 1-5; lots of “how to” Sampled by square root of number of students; teachers scored together Saw writing proficiency go from 17% to 84% … and rise to 94.7% in 2004

    23. Ontario-Montclair - Coloring

    24. Christi Grossnickle – Bathroom Behavior Voice & Feet Wash Hands Toilet Use Great So-so Bad
