The Triple P Core Components Personalization Precision Professional Learning

Personalization Is education that puts the learner at the center(leadbeater, 2002), or more accurately puts each and every child at the center and provides an education that is tailored to the students’ learning motivational needs at any given time -Fullan, Hill, & Crevola, 2006

Precision To get something right. Precision is in the service of personalization because it means to be uniquely accurate, that is precise to the learning needs of individuals. Fullan, Hill, & Crevola, 2006

Professional Learning Breakthrough means focused on-going learning for each and every teacher. Daily learning is needed individually and collectively Schools need to work from the classroom outward. Not centrally developed PD Professional development works when it is school-based and embedded in the daily work of teachers - Fullan, Hill, & Crevola, 2006

Assessment Research by Rick Stiggins “The effect of assessment for learning on student achievement is some four or five times greater than the effect of reduced class size. Few interventions in education come close to having the same level of impact as assessment for learning. But the most intriguing result is that, while all students show achievement gains, the largest gains accrue to the lowest achievers. Everyone wins, with those who have the most to win, winning the most.”

Breakthrough by Fullan, Hill and Crevola (2006) Assessment for learning, as every teacher knows is about obtaining feedback on the teaching and learning and using that feedback to further shape the instructional process and improve learning.

Feedback Feedback to teachers enables them to focus their instruction; feedback to students enables them to monitor and improve their learning. -Fullan, Hill, & Crevola, 2006

Salina Intermediate 4th and 5th Grade model We knew that we needed to schedule something for our students We had the information and research/experience from the 6th - 8th grade We decided last year to do something following a training session with Dr. Dorn

Brainstorming Due to the fact that the elementary schedule is structurally different we had to brainstorm how we could do this. The 4th and 5th grade teachers came up with an idea that evovled over time We decided on one hour a day for 4th grade and one hour a day for 5th grade Scheduling began in May/June We decided not to unleash the model until November after we could implement training and preparation.

Leadership Ms. Price and Ms. Shami then took over the logistics planning This was completed in conjunction with the training by Carole Lower.

Comprehensive Intervention Model (CIM) Elementary- 4 th and 5 th Grade Glenn Maleyko and Jennifer Price

Layers of Support Core Classroom Instruction Tier I - Classroom Intervention Tier II – Intervention Specialist Tier III – Intervention Specialist Tier IV – Special Education

Types of Intervention Groups Reading Recovery (RR) Emergent Language and Literacy Group (ELLG) Guided Reading Plus (GRP) Assisted Writing Group (AWG) Writing Process Group (WPG) Comprehension Focus Group (CFG) Content Strategy Groups (CSG)

Initial Placement Student Information Form DRA ( Directed Reading Assessment ) –Levels 24 or lower Writing Sample- PCL writing sample using the 6+1 rubric Gentry Spelling Inventory DOLCH list

Formative Assessment Running Records Writing Samples Observations of reading and writing

Progress Monitoring Running records- unseen text at the child’s instructional level, as needed NAEP (National Assessment of Educational Progress) Oral Reading Fluency Scale- used to analyze the student’s oral reading. Writing samples- assess an independent writing sample every 2 weeks. Observation notes on reading and writing

Guided Reading Plus (GRP) Emergent through early transitional stages of reading and writing Designed to promote monitoring and self –correcting strategies, fluency, strategies for deeper comprehension and vocabulary development in reading Two day sequence Day 1- –Phonological Awareness and/or phonics –Guided reading Day 2- –Reading assessment – running record –Independent reading –Writing about reading (writing strategy lesson, writing prompt, individual conference) –Reading and writing analysis

Comprehension Focus Groups (CFG) Students at the transitional stage and beyond Difficulty comprehending the wide range of text genres Develop students’ reading and writing knowledge for narrative, information and persuasive Three Phases –Phase I and II – Reading several texts from one genre responding to the reading through discussion and in response logs completing text maps for the genre being studied Repeat phases I and II for each book in the genre –Phase III – Writing in the focus genre Takes place after the students have had the opportunity to read and respond to all of the books in the unit.

Exit Criteria 4 th grade –DRA level 30 or higher –NAEP –Writing prompt, graded with the 6+1 rubric 5 th grade –DRA level 40 or higher –NAEP –Writing prompt, graded with the 6+1 rubric
