3 Data analysis is a critical component of No Child Left Behind (NCLB). NCLB is an opportunity to use data to transform teaching and learning. State Accreditation- Data Retreat Required Previously – only schools in improvement Accreditation – every school in the district

Gain a deeper understanding of building, grade- level, and individual student standards data. Determine areas for celebration & improvement Analyze your school’s effectiveness and set goals for improvement. Gain a deeper understanding of IEP and Non-IEP student data and how it impacts grade level data.

2006 / 2007/2008 Find the 3 “lowest” scores per grade level per year. Highlight the cells in “pink” Find the 3 “highest ” scores per grade level per year. Highlight the cells in “green”

 Based on the “lowest” standards, circle the specific standards chosen to focus on for this year on the 2004 shaded columns.  Then, find the corresponding NEW 2007 standards that contains a similar content to the circled standards and highlight those standards.

3 dots  Each person has 3 dots  Individually, based on your discussion of the “building” targeted areas, choose 3 standards you think your building should focus on this year. dot  Stick a dot by the corresponding reading standards to indicate your choice.

7.R.2.1 Students can interpret text using comprehension strategies. Learning targets to meet this standard: I can study or determine the relationship of the parts to the whole (interpret) by connecting, questioning, visualizing, determining importance, inferring, synthesizing, and monitoring for meaning (comprehension strategies). Examples: Determining the author’s purpose, cause and effect, compare and contrast, conclusions, facts or opinions, generalizations, graphics, hypotheses, inferences, supporting details, prior knowledge, or purpose for reading

8.M.1.2. Students are able to find area, volume, and surface area with whole number measurements. Student Speak: When given the formulas, I can calculate (find) the volume of: *rectangular prisms *rectangular pyramids *cylinders *cones When given the formulas, I can calculate (find) surface area of: *rectangular prisms *cylinders I can find the area of a figure that is made up of two or more squares, rectangles, or triangles (composite shape). I can use the correct unit to label volume, surface area and area.

NCLB states that all students will improve. The students from kindergarten on up need the added support and reinforcement of every person they see during the day. Every person in the school is responsible for student achievement.

Brainstorm how you can ensure ALL teachers address the achievement of ALL students. Grades K-2 and grades 9-10: Discuss the connections with the standards in your grade levels to the ones identified in math and reading.
