Write the word that is the main concept of the lesson as an acrostic Give students three minutes to write terms that they think of for the word Go forward with the lesson At the end of the lesson write the word again Students write terms again to clarify the concept word Classroom Strategy

Curriculum AssessmentInstruction
Instruction: Classroom ◦ Are my teaching strategies working? ◦ What concepts do the students need assistance? ◦ What do students understand and what can they apply?
Instruction: Individual Diagnosis ◦ What does the student need help with? ◦ What are the strengths of the student? ◦ What misconceptions does this student have?

What questions do you ask when you examine the TEKS analysis? What types of comparisons can be made? How can these reports be a learning experience?
Student Engaging TeacherStudentTraditional StudentTeacherPossibilities
Attention Notice taken of someone or something; the regarding of someone or something as interesting or important. Engagement Cognitive -consists of beliefs and values: rigor through higher level experiences and relevance through meaningful work Emotional - consists of motivation and feelings: establishing relationships, classroom environment Behavioral - consists of habits and skills: procedures, transitions, expectations VS

What additional questions do we have when we examine the item analysis information? What conclusions can we draw based upon the TEKS information presented in the item analysis?
Private ◦ Write your own conclusions on a post it. Peer ◦ Share your conclusions with a shoulder partner. Public ◦ Share at your table Classroom Strategy
Use of Information ◦ Identify TEKS for Whole Group Instruction Concepts not taught Concepts misunderstood Concepts needing a depth of understanding Small Group Instruction Students need specific concepts Specific needs
Kuder-Richardson Reliability How reliable is the assessment? ◦ A.60 to a.80 is a reliable assessment. Tests rated above.80 are considered very reliable. The measure is not reliable on a small sampling.
The Algebra Benchmark Kuder-Richardson reliability value for this exam with these student selections is.86. The Geometry Benchmark Kuder-Richardson reliability value for this exam with these student selections is.76. (7
A large positive point-biserial value indicates that students with high scores on the overall test are also getting the item right (which we would expect) and students with low scores on the overall test are getting the item wrong (which we would also expect).

All students have the three cups stacked on their desk with the green showing. When the material becomes difficult or he student is having difficulty understanding they change to yellow cup. ◦ Teacher/Green cup student clarifies ◦ Call on this student When student is lost they change the cup to red ◦ Call on a Green cup student to clarify and explain Classroom Strategy
Terms/Concepts/Vocabulary is posted on the board Partner students and have them stand One student faces the board and the other student faces away to the partner The student facing the board talks to give clues When the partner names all the terms the team sits Classroom Strategy

A generalization of the concept is asked of students as their ticket out the door. ◦ May also address a content need or process. Students respond in sentences. ◦ Can be written on an index card. ◦ Can be written on a one week sheet. On the way out the door students give the ticket to the teacher. The teacher collects, and responds in writing in a different color. Teacher returns the cards the next day. The students share their original writing and comment with partner. Classroom Strategy

Students each have IPR cards ◦ Individual Pupil Response ◦ ABCD ◦ Students display their response ◦ Partner with a student with a differing card ◦ Use evidence to “convince” the partner that their thinking is correct ◦ Allow a convincing student to share with the class Classroom Strategy

FORMATIVEFORMATIVE How might this be used in class?
Tasks for the Afternoon ◦ Plan CSCOPE lessons for Math ◦ Submit feedback for the unit assessments
Plan CSCOPE lessons for the Main Block ◦ Use the IFD ◦ Use the Performance Indicators ◦ Analyze the Standard Does every aspect of the lesson address the understanding of the standard? Do students have multiple opportunities to demonstrate mastery of the standard? Are students provided opportunities to demonstrate the learning in a new way? ◦ How will you build clarification of misconceptions ◦ How will you use formative assessments in the lessons? Submit a copy
Submit feedback for the unit assessments ◦ Review the assessment ◦ Indicate items to keep ◦ Indicate items to omit ◦ Submit prior to leaving
