What do you want from this session? • What do you already know about SAIS & T-9 Net? • What do you want to gain from this session?
By the end of this session you will: • Understand departmental requirements • Be aware of limitations for EAL/D learners • Know how to monitor on the T-9 Net using SAIS • Have ideas for making life easier Katherine Region
What are the departmental requirements? • Monitor ALL Transition, Year 1 and Year 2 students early Term 4 for the year level they are enrolled in • Optional to record in Student Achievement Information System (SAIS) Katherine Region
What are the limitations for EAL/D learners? • Some of the T-9 Net expectations for Reading, Writing and Oral Language are not expected in the NTCF ESL Levels until Level 2 or higher • Does not necessarily give appropriate teaching points Katherine Region
By the end of Year One students must be able to: • Produce the speech sounds m, l, n, sh, ch, t, d, k, g, th, f, z in isolation, in a meaningful, fun context such as performing the sound actions in the Mr Tongue’s House story • Speak with sentences that demonstrate grammatical markers: endings that include ing, plurals, regular past tense, irregular past tense, possessive, 3rd person present tense regular, 3rd person present tense irregular, contractions
So let’s have a look at SAIS http://sais.ntschools.net/ http://test.sais.ntschools.net/ Katherine Region
Bulk Updating and Bulk Assessing • Bulk update a section for an individual student • Bulk assess a number of students • Bulk update will over-ride any previous input, but you can bulk update then change individual items but won’t save unless you go out of assessment and come back in
Tips • Use checklists throughout the term – give to assistants as well • Use evidence of learning already gathered • Print the continuum for each student and highlight (from the PDF) Katherine Region
