  5. Procedures, Big Goals, and Scientific Inquiry Ms. Klinkhachorn September 13, 2010 Biology

  6. Procedures To Date • Turning in work • Entering the classroom • Testing environment • Group work • Going to the bathroom/locker • Being tardy

  7. Exiting the Classroom

  8. Exiting the Classroom • You are dismissed when I dismiss you, not when the bell rings • Turn in any classwork you have due into the wooden bin • Leave it how you found it • Chairs and tables in proper places • Trash in the trashcan (I am not your maid!)

  9. Missing Class

  10. Missing Class • Check the “While You Were Out” Binder for missing handouts/homework • It’s your job to schedule a makeup test date. I will not seek you out. • Unless I receive a note signed by your parent/guardian, your absence is unexcused • You lose participation points for not being in class

  11. Procedures for the Do Now Activity (DNA) • Answers must be written in complete sentences. • You must have an answer to every question for full credit. • Work silently and independently. You may use your notes if you need to, not your classmates. • You need to use the DNA sheet that I give you. If you lose yours, you will not receive another.

  12. How the DNA is graded • Two components: • Behavior • You will receive a stamp within the first few minutes of class if you are working SILENTLY on the DNA. • You must have at least half of the DNA finished to receive a stamp. • Stamps are worth 2 pts • Completion • Answers are worth 2 pts total. • If you don’t answer all of the questions, you automatically get -1 pt. • 1 pt will be taken off of your grade if you answer the DNA on separate sheets of paper/do not use the sheet I give you

  13. DNA – September 13, 2010 • What is the achievement gap and what does it mean to you? • What is the average (composite) ACT score at Uplift according to this table? What is the average ACT score for the district? For the state? • Which of the sections of the ACT did Uplift students perform the best on? Is this consistent with the state data?

  14. New Uplift ACT Data

  15. A Comparison

  16. New Uplift PSAE Data

  17. How We Compare

  18. What Else Can We Do? • Set goals for ourselves and work hard to reach them! • Ambitious, but feasible • Class BIG Goals: • 80% Content Mastery • 80% Lab Skills Mastery • 3 Pts Growth on the ACT

  19. Last Year… • 2 classes hit over 80% content mastery, while the other 3 classes were in the high 70s • All classes reached 80% lab skills mastery!! • We averaged 2.6 points of growth on the ACT • 1 student went up by 8 points! How do you think those students were able to accomplish this?

  20. On Your DNA Paper • Tell me: • 2 individual big goals for yourself • How you plan to accomplish these goals • Be specific
