Data can… provide feedback on the past and provide a basis to begin planning for the future What Kind of Information can Data Provide us? Department of Mathematics and Science

IMPORTANCE OF DATA Facilitate a clear understanding of the gaps between where the school or class is and where it wants to be. Show if school or class goals and objectives are being accomplished. Predict and prevent failures. Predict and ensure successes. Establish foundation for Continuous School Improvement/SIP. Data drives instruction, and professional development.

Grade 5 Science Assessments Calendar ( ) Baseline: August 9 – Sept 13, 2013 Fall IA: Oct 28 - Nov 15, 2013 Winter IA: Jan 21- Feb 14, 2014 FCAT 2014: (April 22 – May 7, 2014)

Interim Assessments (IA) for Grade 5 (All benchmarks will be assessed on Baseline, Fall and Winter assessments) Quarterly Science Benchmark Assessments (QSBA) for Grades K- 4 will assess benchmarks covered in each quarter: Pretest/Post-test, Quarters 1, 2, 3, 4) QSBA for K-4 will be administered at the end of each grading period. Available: First QSBA available October 21, Department of Mathematics and Science

Grade 5 Science Interim cut scores are based on statistical regression analysis between students performance on Interim Assessment and scale scores on 2012 FCAT 2.0: Fall IA satisfactory cut score: 51% or higher Winter IA satisfactory cut score: 53% or higher (Cut Scores) Baseline Proficiency Level: 70% Gr. 5 Science Interims Cut Scores Department of Mathematics and Science
