Digging into the Data Principals’ Meeting March 21, 2013
Let’s Explore: On which standards was achievement the highest? On which standards was achievement the lowest? What “other factors” should be considered? If these were your school’s results, what should happen next?
In Your Folders… Scope & Sequence Standard Descriptions Major Work of Grade Prioritization of Standards
5 th Grade On which standards was achievement the highest? On which standards was achievement the lowest? What “other factors” should be considered? If these were your school’s results, what should happen next? A Closer Look at Grade 5
5 th Grade On which standards was achievement the highest? A Closer Look at Grade 5 Real world problems in coordinate system Operations with decimals Numerical Patterns
5 th Grade On which standards was achievement the lowest? A Closer Look at Grade 5 Magnitude of number Rounding decimals Operations with whole numbers Order of operations
5 th Grade What “other factors” should be considered? A Closer Look at Grade 5 Most of the standards in red are from 1 st quarter Whole number operations is lower than operations with decimals Prioritize the standards ( for ex: 5.OA.1 )
Quarters 1-2 Scope & Sequence
Major Work of the Grade Factors to Consider 3 rd Grade4 th Grade 5 th Grade
Prioritization of Standards Factors to Consider
Other Factors: Quality of the item Expectation(s) of the standard Discrepancy between school and district performances Discrepancy between teachers on the same grade level Trends across the same standards Pacing – when was this taught & will it be taught again Factors to Consider
5 th Grade If these were your school’s results, what should happen next? A Closer Look at Grade 5 Was whole number operations taught conceptually? How is remediation being handled? Why is decimal operations higher than whole numbers?
What about EOGs? What is the area of this rectangle? What are the dimensions of the rectangles that can be made with a perimeter of 30? Which rectangle results in the greatest area? How do you know? What do you notice about the relationship between area and side lengths?
Where is the focus moving forward? Multiplication & Division with Whole Numbers; Area Focus on Deep Conceptual Understanding Explore a variety of problem types with models and/or pictures. Looking ahead: FRACTIONS 3 rd Place Value & Operations Focus on Deep Conceptual Understanding No formal algorithms for multiplication or division. Looking ahead: FRACTIONS 4 th Place Value & Operations with Whole Numbers & Decimals Focus on Deep Conceptual Understanding Formal algorithms for multiplication of whole # only. Looking ahead: FRACTIONS 5 th Next Steps
