Writing Goals Using KCCRS

What areas do I need to write a goal in? Academics Reading Language Arts Writing Math Transition If needed Seniors Behavior

How do I know if I need a goal? Goals are based on data that justifies a need If you are providing support in that area—you need a goal Consult IEPs still need to have a goal

What do I base my goals on? KCCRS—All Academic goals Reading Math Children taking the DLM—Must qualify for it. Use the Essential Elements Behavior goals are based on the Social and Emotional Standards

How do I know which standards to choose? Based on diagnostic data ELA will be grade level Math may or may not be at their grade level-due to scope and sequence. Behavior—data collected on the behavior

Clarify Reading/Writing/Language Arts Reading only, writing only or combined to Language Arts Reading Level—GE and Accuracy—Jerry Johns Error analysis on the reading Types of errors-missed words, endings, substitutions, etc. Comprehension-retell, sequence, inference, compare, contrast, etc. Vocabulary—ESL or second language learner-usually a major concern Writing—Sample, suggest CBM Error analysis—Think back to 6 traits of writing. Language Arts is a combined reading and writing goal. For further information: Talk to the classroom teacher

Clarify Math Error Analysis of math skills, computation and application Scope and sequence Diagnostics—IXL, teacher reports, CBM, placement tests, etc. May be over multiple grade levels

Clarify Behavior Observations Data collected

Let’s Look at specific standards Fluency—reading range Vocabulary—vocabulary (Definite if second language student) Comprehension—Key ideas, Craft and Structure, Integration of knowledge and Ideas May need to look at both Literature and Informational texts

Let’s Look at specific standards Writing Types and Purposes—Different formats for writing Production and Distribution—Improving writing features Research—How to do and write up results

Let’s Look at specific standards Math Scope and sequence May be multiple grade levels Computation—lower level skills Application—high level skills Take practice standards into consideration

Let’s Look at specific standards Behavior Grade level Character, Personal Development, Social Development Choose one, two, or all three areas

Let’s Look at specific standards DLM—Must meet criteria Must have a goal for reading and one for math Must be registered for DLM. Fill out first contact survey after Oct. 1. The First Contact Survey determines the Linkage Level that will be delivered to the student when the student enters the assessment. There are 5 linkage levels: Successor Target Proximal Distal Initial

This is what they look like

How to fill out the rubrics? Choose between 4-8 standards This is a year long plan Math and Essential elements have numbers to go along with the standard—please write out the standard ELA have anchor standards, domains and indicators, write out the specific indicator you are using.

See, it wasn’t so bad after all! Thanks
