  7. School Wide Expectations • We will place an intense focus on learning strategies and differentiated teaching based on assessment scores in the classroom. These scores helped us to initially place students in RTI group #1 (current group). • More emphasis will be placed on STEM activities that give students hands on experiences in the classroom where they are challenging each other to think and discuss before drawing conclusions. • Working on writing goals and challenging students to move up the ladder with their thinking process – a three paragraph writer moves on to a five paragraph writer when given a prompt.

  8. Academics • Reading for vocabulary enrichment, fluency, comprehension building skills, and strategy building. • Math: Multiplication, Word Problems, Shapes, Place Value, Money, Decimals, Basics of Fractions. • Science: Hands on Projects using the scientific method. Also, extending for understanding • Socials Studies: Maps, Government, Florida History, Current events • Language Arts: Grammar, Spelling, Sentence Structure, Writing Narratives, Persuasive and Expository.

  9. Important Information • Changes from previous years: • On Progress (Interim) Reports & Report Cards students can receive an “O”-Outstanding, “S”-Satisfactory, “N”-Needs Improvement, or a “U”-Unsatisfactory. • Rarely will an “O” be rewarded • Edusoft (Benchmark) testing 2 times this year.

It helps us determine if the students are on target academically for reading. • FCAT testing in April- passing scores are levels 2-5
